The restoration and reupholstery of furniture has recently been enjoying a revival. This new appreciation has been fuelled by an admiration of traditional quality, the wonderful variety of fabrics available and the desire of people of all ages and backgrounds to embark upon projects with pleasing and worthwhile objectives. This guide will help to lead you through the basics of the craft, but also introduce you to some of my personal "tips", which come from many years' experience of tackling the "knotty problems" that frequently occur in upholstery. The craft is labour intensive and requires patience and perseverance - but the rewards are wonderful.I hope that this book will be a useful addition to your bookshelf and will encourage you, so that you will both enjoy and take pride in the results.
