Upholstery Tutorial for dinette benches

[Gone Kayaking]

Well I finished up one of the benches and posted a tutorial on my blog with some sources and links to a couple of upholstery videos.

Thanks Soup! Actually just finished the second one, and it came out even better, but I'll probably dicker around with both of them a bit more after painting the outside is completed. In the pics below I swapped out the first bench for the second.
First bench "puckers"

Second Bench--improved (swapped in place with first)

both together

I think the puckers make them look more plush and cushie! Like it has so much comfort it can't even hardly contain themselves.
Man I hope mine turn out even half that good, cause you know I'll be trying it soon!

those look amazing!! can i hire you!?!?

Yeah, you need to add puckers to the edges that don't have them.

not for hire...sorry...but you can diy these really. It's not that hard to sew these up. And by the way the puckers have sort of worked their way out as as we've used em.
