    Nice job. I remember when I got my dining room set it came with white broque on the chairs. Not good if you have children and animals. Finally after so many years I decided to try my hand at recovering them, even added a cording too which was very new to me. Now that I see yours I want to redo mine agaiin as it no longer goes with the new dining room. Thinking of adding an embroidery design in the center but haven't decided which one so its still in the "thinking mode" for me. Again, great job and you must give yourself credit for being such a good teacher.

    They look great and the fabric definitely brightens things up.

    I agree, that old fabric was yucky! Of course, I personally hate nubby, prickly polyester upholstery fabrics anyway. But the new seat covers really make the look; and you did an amazing job on them!

    They look very good. They are usually very easy to do!

    Beautiful job, really makes the chairs look so nice. I have a small rocking sofa that needs to be recovered... wish I was still close by so you could help!
