Upholstering Dining Chairs Part 8 – Closing the Backs

After today’s work 6 of the chairs are complete except for the outside back piece of navy fabric. In order to close in the backs, I added 2 strips of vertical webbing to each.

 Next I stapled on 2 layers of heavy scrap fabric to give some strength.

And now we know: the chairs are comfy, we brought one upstairs to try out during dinner and they passed the Tom comfort test!
