Upholstery is a challenging but immensely rewarding craft to learn. A dining chair or footstool are ideal projects for a complete beginner but more ambitious projects can be attempted by those either with previous experience, or the time to attend a series of classes.


On the course you will learn about traditional materials and sundries, e.g. tacks, webbing, springs, hessian, horsehair, wadding and calico.  Traditional methods of upholstery, e.g. ripping out, hair stuffing, stitched edges, apply calico, apply top cover and trimmings. Modern methods will also taught.


The course are suitable for beginners and improvers. Small classes - maximum of 6 to 8 students. Bring your own furniture. Beginners should ring tutor for advice on what will be suitable. Upholstery materials and sundries will be available to purchase during each course.


Dates for Buckingham and Northampton coming
