Hi! I’m Rachelle from the blog Adventures In Creating where I do everything from sewing to welding. I am thrilled to be guest posting on one of my favorite blogs. Thank you so much, Cassity, for this opportunity!

I’ve never slipcovered anything before so first I did some research on slipcover instructions and read a few articles:

Then sewed the whole thing up. It was a little cumbersome with all the fabric laying everywhere but I was afraid to unpin anything and loose my shape.










I have been wanting to make a slipcover for my wing back chair for a long time. After watching your demo, I’m going to give it try.
You did such a great job, thanks.
Thanks and good luck, Arlene! We’d love to see pictures when you’re done!
Thanks. Yours cam out great. Nice and snug fit. So many are sloppy looking but yours looks great. Thanks for posting. I am about to do 2 loveseats. Your directions really helped.
Thanks for the comment, Barbara! We’d love to see pictures when you’re done! https://www.remodelaholic.com/share-brag-post/
Thanks so much for sharing!!! Now I just need to find the fabric I want for this chair!!
That is the hardest part! 🙂 Good luck finding just what you want!
Great job, I am going to try this.. can’t wait to see the results. .
Thank you so very much for posting this. I am in my 60’s and have a very bad back problem. A couple of years ago I found an old chaise lounge at an antique mall and this is what I’ve been sleeping on. Unfortunately it’s shabby-chic look is looking a lot more “shabby” than “chic” anymore, but I am not financially able to replace it. Since I found these wonderful directions, I’ve decided to try to make a cover for it instead. I would never have even “thought” about attempting such a feat without your wonderful tutorial. Again…thanks so much.
Wow!! Just, Wow!!
thank you. just what i was looking for.
cheers
Ill get started to night
Great job! You not only matched the vertical stripes, but the horizontal stripe across the front of the cushion matched the side too! Bravo!
I have been sewing for 70 years and congratulate you for a job well done. It looks more like upholstery than slipcover. I will try your techniques on some projects I have procrastinated on for far too long. Thanks for posting your innovative ideas!
Can’t wait to get my fabric and get started! Thank you for sharing your love of creating with others. Your tutorial has given me the courage to take on my own slipcover project.
Hi,
I am trying to re-upholster a tub chair but I cannot detach the seat from the chair. Any ideas how this can be done?
Cheers
I haven’t done it personally, but this post might be helpful: https://www.remodelaholic.com/reupholster-tub-chair/
Your chair looks very similar to the one I need to cover. How much fabric did it take, so I have a general idea? Thank you for your tutorial!
