Child sized chair upholstery

Hello Diy friends,

I invite you to follow along as I assemble and upholster this child size chair.  The techniques and skills I use to upholster this piece are similar to what you would do for a full-sized upholstered chair.

What you’ll learn in this tutorial:

  • How to assemble a frame kit
  • How to pad and upholster a tight seat deck
  • Padding and support for the inside arms
  • Using a contrast cording to define the arm shape
  • Sewing the arm fabrics with contrast cording
  • Padding up the inside back
  • Upholstering the inside back
  • Closing up the outside arms
  • Closing up the outside back using Curve Ease

This childs size chair was a fun project and I know my grand son will love it for years to come.

If you are looking for more in-depth learning I invite you to become a member of our online classes and let’s get you upholstering!

I hope you enjoy learning as much as I enjoy teaching.

Thanks,

Kim
