Swedish Home Furnishings

This recliner and ottoman sure is a challenge to upholster.The owner chose a faux leather in a cream color. Here's a pic of the cushions removed from the frame before the patterning begins.
The main plates are elastic webbing stretch sewn with 3/4 inch backed foam to center pleates. This pic shows the cushion assembly before "packing".

And the finished recliner and ottoman.


Vinyl work,bike and Equipment seating

                        This John deer 4200 backhoe seat and backrest with all steel frames need some attention. Covered in a tweed fabric.
I tailored this marine grade vinyl onto these pieces. Precut the holes for attachment. And some stuffings reworked so it's got a nice clean tailered look.
