    Lovely! I like the fabric and the understated finishing. Simple is better, sometimes.
    Beautiful, Craig!!

    I would have used teal velvet to make the new upholstery, and only use Drew’s patterned fabric to make accent pillows to go with it.

    The piece looks stellar in situ, but I really would have preferred "ticking" with a larger pattern on it. The rosewood frame is to die for.

    A great piece but it looks unfinished with no gimp or braid to cover the nail heads.

    Hmm...not to my tastes. Great job, would just choose a different print (and rebuild the back).

    • @okjoe5561

      Rebuilding the back was my first thought too. There have to be examples they could have used to recreate it.

    Fabric made from scratch…….that hasn’t got to to be cheap 😬 Fingers crossed 🤞 Drew will find others that need that same design and Drew can draw royalties from it👍🙂 Smart investment in fabric 😊

      It's just material. Saying it's a bit "crazy" is a bit strong. Not really a word people use in every situation they find unusual.

      Would you have preferred it the way it was? There was no other choice.

    • @tallismaryward
      @tallismaryward 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@okjoe5561 There were 1000's of other choices. The pattern is too small and too quickly formed to make a full pattern. The line at the front should be even not in a wave, The smallness of the pattern extenuates this flaw.

    I am not fond of the pattern, I would have preferred a rich coloured fabric, plush and lush,

    So many traditional hand skills are being lost these days as they do not teach them in schools any more .I hope Craig passes his knowledge, understanding and craft on to the next generation by taking on an apprentice.. You done an excellent job on a piece of furniture which was ready for the skip.

    The upholstery guy apparently works for cheap. Work and cost of fabric would be at least 700 pounds in Czech Republic if talk in its low end. Cant imagine selling this for mere 1000 pounds.

    Cheap looking printed fabric on a piece like this? Totally inappropriate. They should have used a richly colored damask or brocade, a twisted cord around the edge of the seat, and a pleated fabric(say velvet in a contrasting color) under the cord, called ruching-finished off with a coordinating gimp. The buttons should be done in the same color as the ruching. 6" bullion fringe hanging down from the arms would have been a nice finishing touch. Ticking as he called it is for mattresses and pillows not rosewood furniture.
