Modern DIY Upholstery by Vicky Grubb Pdf

Ten simple projects using quick and easy modern methods. QR codes will take you to time-lapse videos of the construction of each piece of furniture! Modern DIY Upholstery shows the hobby sewer or complete newcomer how to make the leap into home upholstery taking you gently by the hand, demonstrating the simple techniques you need to bring your love of fabric to upholstered items for the home. Not a dry, highly technical professional manual, this bright and accessible book takes you step-by-step through the process of upholstery of desirable pieces of furniture—using items found at antique markets, street sales and thrift stores that are designed up and given a modern twist. You will then learn all about fabric choice and other materials, discover the essential techniques and then embark on the projects which include a simple stool, a vintage sewing box, a blanket box or ottoman, a fluted headboard, a Danish dining chair, a bedroom/nursing chair, a patchwork armchair and a mid-century design two-seater sofa, all guided by the author’s expert instruction. “This book has really set me on fire to go prowling for an ottoman or two, or maybe even a settee. The pictures are lovely, the instructions seem clear upon reading, and there are even time-lapse videos!” —A Dress a Day “Newby furniture upholsterers will be inspired to start their first projects and intermediate to seasoned ‘wrappers’ will definitely be challenged to stretch their fabrics and repertoire with more advanced instructions.” —Home Jelly
