    We bought a rocker just like this about 2 weeks ago, cost us $5 because the upholstery was so bad. You did such a good job on yours I think I will send my chair with some fabric to you !!! Your chair turned out great. BTW, is that a real cat on the floor ? It's eyes are a little strange.

    It is very easy to redo these...take off the trim and you will see that they stapled the fabric on. You can leave on the old fabric and staple the new right over it. They you use fabric qlue...(its really good and dries quickly) and your glue on the trim. You will love the results and very simple.
