Good basic information on the craft of upholstery with easy to use instructions and illustrations.
This book shows the many kinds of fitted, loose or draped covers that can be made for furniture. Advice is given on how to do the stitching, different kinds of skirts that can be added for length, and examples shown of every kind of chair or couch covered. There is also a special chapter on daybeds, that are a special hybrid type of furnishing.
