When I reupholstered our couches I literally went to the library, checked out the 10 books they had on upholstery and read them all! It all worked but I find that 1 book with all the right information is so much better! Your chairs turned out beautifully. I love the double welt.Maggie Mugginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02970687926580905465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-30462340108351555382013-11-14T15:04:00.090-06:002013-11-14T15:04:00.090-06:00My boyfriend, my garage, my dogs and I would all b...My boyfriend, my garage, my dogs and I would all benefit from this book.

For reference, two different shops quoted me $275 plus the cost of fabric to reupholster <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hDl5m7_rCYU/UjIldXi_EDI/AAAAAAAAKp0/i4-JVN4aXxI/s1600/craigslist-chair.jpg" rel="nofollow">this fairly simple chair</a> (plus a 5-6 week wait time). And that might be well worth it for some people. But if you're like me and enjoy tinkering with projects, it might be fun to attempt it yourself. Which I did, and love the results. There's no right or wrong answer, just what suits each person.
