A new recliner chair I made from a tut


This was BIG challange for me. I found the instructions very hard to follow!  My cushions are not according the the tut. I had to make my own style. I had lots of problems fitting it right. It does work to sit upright and recline. Anyway, I am pleased with my first attempt. I used the faux leather from an old vest I got at a thrift store. It was very light and soft and easy to work with.

    do you might commenting further on your experience? How was the thickness of the material for example? Was that and making corners the hardest things to make work? Thanks for any info..nice to browse your blog/work :)

      so for the late reply, the material was an old faux leather vest I cut up. It was very light weight. I cannot tell you how thick, very pliable . so the corners were not hard. The tit told how to do them, believe most were cut corners no overlap .

    Graphics available on your internet-site despite the fact that helping to make attraction promptly a tiny amount of degree submits. Fun way of long run potential sedie vintage metallo, I'm going to be book-marking back then grown to be ones own spot stop starts inch together inch.
