This thing is built like a tank. It'll last for generations.
Awesome work. And a great design. I like the chaise lounge end on one side and the standard sofa arm on the other.
I've had that same green fabric, or what looks like it, at least 3 times last year. It must be a popular color and fabric. If it's the same, it's rather thick and great to work with.
Is that a staple gun holster on your belt? If so, did yo buy it or make it? Rowley Company has a video where a lady is making cornice boards and she is wearing one. But they don't sell them.
Thanks for the pics.

Thanks Gene.
I bought that holster 30 years ago and have repaired it several times. I got it when I worked in Manufacturing in Hickory NC. Almost every upholsterer there had one. Nothing worse than having that million dollar hold and your gun is just inches out of reach. Back then you could pick one up at almost any saddle shop. Don't know if they are still available with manufacturing the way it is. Google saddle shops near hickory maybe you'll get lucky.
I would think you could find something similar from the suppliers of such for carpenters

Beautiful work! I'm curious about the curved chairs with the beautiful matching stripes... about how much fabric did those require?
Sorry! should looked at the next thread. ;)
Wow! That's impressive. How did you come up with the design/dimensions? Do you have any more pics of building it?
Real nice work there, thanks for the pictures.
