    This is the antique chair I just reupholstered. I wish the plaids had lined up better but my client bought the fabric years ago and didn't allow for extra so there was nothing I could do about it.

    Beautiful I would love to own something like that , but in the UK they are really expensive to buy even grotty ones.

    With no extra you did a good job with the plaid.

    I just bought some fabric to re-cover an antique platform rocking chair my sister gave me. Bought a book too since I've never done this before.
    I hope I haven't bitten off more than I can chew.
    Used those wonderful Joann's coupons on my purchases. :)
