Give new life to your furniture--sofas, armchairs, dining chairs, director's chairs, deck chairs, daybeds, headboards, dressing tables, futons, footstools, blanket chests, folding screens--with the good-looking projects in this well-presented book. Basics are fully covered: working with color, pattern, and texture; measuring all types of furniture; and preparing the cutting layout. Each individual slipcover project is thoroughly explained, with directions on measuring the specific piece of furniture, a cutting diagram, a set of detailed step-by-step instructions accompanied by clear diagrams, and photos of the finished products. Though a few of the more tailored pieces require some degree of sewing experience, many of the items can be successfully achieved by the novice.
