Tufted Chair

This lovely chair will be up for sale at The Little Red Barn Sale April 28-29.  If you live in the Atlanta, this is going to be a great artists sale.    Click on the red barn in my side bar for more info.

These little chairs, have become one of my favorite items to make over.  The chair usually starts out pretty ugly and gross, but by the time I finish, it's crisp, clean and beautiful.  This is my 3rd chair like this and by far my favorite.  

You can see my other two chairs here and here.

Here is the before

As you can see it has some button tufting on the seat and back cushion.  I had been wanting to try it out, and this chair was perfect for my first time.  Yes I admit, I was a tufting virgin.  But I just followed the exact way the old buttons were done and did it exactly the same with new fabric.  It was actually pretty easy.  If I had to do it from scratch, it would probably not have been.

 This was also my first time making the double cording on the back cushion  It is the perfect way to cover up all those ugly staples.

Crisp, clean, beautiful.
