Henage Bench Reupholstered

The Henage family has this bench in their kitchen area that has seen better days. I wish I would have taken some before pictures so you could see what it looked like. Jeannine hired me to reupholster their bench for them. She said it shouldn't be too hard. As I looked at, I kind of thought I could do it, but at the same time was very skeptical, especially with my meager sewing skills. I accepted the challenge. It was a good thing I had Jeannine to help me and so I could ask her a zillion questions as I worked on it. I also wish I would have taken pictures as I worked on this fun project. While I was taking apart the old vinyl, I sliced my hand with the seamripper. It was nasty! The cut was an inch long and deep enough to see fat - gross!!! I probably should have gotten stitches, but didn't. At one point on the sewing machine, I was covered with fabric everywhere. I was stuck and couldn't get out! It was quite the adventure! I felt like I was guessing my way through it, but it turned out great! It looks so good now! So, pretty much, I'm a professional now. You can call me for any of your uphostery needs. Hee hee. Jeannine was "tickled" with how well it turned out and how great it looks in her kitchen. Here are some pictures of what it looks like now.
