Wingback before...gold chenille.
After tan linen...she wanted more of the relaxed slipcover look rather than the formal look of the gold chenille.
They had interesting curved arms that I don't see too often. I wasn't sure how they were going to work out, but the linen shaped beautifully and worked well.
I did add the seam with piping on the front of the arms....it added a little detail, plus was functional for me. I think it would've been hard to wrap the same piece of fabric around from the inside arm to the outside arm and make it look right. So the inside arm is one piece and the outside arm is another piece, doing this also saved on fabric.
Band going down the wing.

I love the way you handled the arms!
Beautiful!!
Great job as usual! I have not done one of those wings yet, they look so intimidating but because you make it look so easy I would give it a try.
I need to redo a chair like this... hope I can win that DVD of yours.
stumbled on your BEAUTIFUL slipcovers over at tatertots and jello... GORGEOUS!
Question: I love the look at the bottom of your slips - ending with a welt rather than a skirt. Do you mind sharing how you do this? I've made slips for a sofa and loveseat. Would have preferred the welt at the bottom, but did the skirt because I thought it would be more forgiving on my first attempts. Thanks.
