Slipcover 1 Day Dining Room Chair Workshop



Hi all.

We just recently had a Dining Room Chairs Workshop here in Washington in Sheila's workroom... Wanted to share Sheila's project.



We used DIY Method for our chairs of this type. Did a quick cut on half pattern.





Here's the back of Sheila's chair. Don't you just love it?

    Hi Shirley,

    I think that Karen is referring to the DIY (do it yourself) method taught by John French in his videos [www.frenchslips.com]. The fabric that I used was just a scrap of white denim, a bit of antique satin for the welt cord and some bone buttons dug-up from the button box. The front corners turned out very nice, similar to butterfly pleats.

    I have not seen the tapes, so I don't know what he's teaching.
