This weekend class is intended to teach the upholstery skills and knowledge to upholster or reupholster projects such as a side chair or desk chair. The weekend project will be a slip seat that is typical of many chairs. Students will learn how to blind stitch and to upholster around an obstacle such as a chair arm. With these skills, students should be able to upholster or reupholster most chairs with arms. Like any new skill, upholstery has its own language and terminology that is difficult to navigate without some prior knowledge. Therefore, presentations and handouts will be provided with a focus on what the student may not know about upholstery. The class will conclude with presentations and demonstrations on more advanced upholstery, including an “Introduction to Upholstery Sewing” presentation.
