Tartan and Cord re_upholstered armchair

This armchair was a kind donation by my neighbour so I could practice my upholstery skills. Before this it was green and stripey, the fabric was worn but the foam and springs inside were good, so....


Just to show that I can do it ! I have to say I really enjoyed the project and the fact I had to use offcuts because I didn't have enough in one fabric proved a blessing. I have just noticed, behind the armchair you can see latest Kringloop finds, I am sure they will come in useful.... somewhere.Here's a shot to show you all how comfy it is too ! Can't get him out of the chair now !
