Gobsmacked is an understatement, just look at the quality of this loose cover made by Sonia.
A really beautiful fabric to compliment the chair too.
This is the one of the reasons that I love what I do is when I see how easy my members pick up my learning style.
I always teach on my videos like you are sitting and watching me (which you are really). I break every piece down so you can follow exactly like I do. I’ve broken down most tutorials into 6-7 small videos and I cover all aspects of them.
- How to cut the perfect template
- How to transfer and cut out the fabric from the template
- I explain how to sew the cover together
- And if you ever need me you simply ask and I will answer
I asked Sonia a few questions:
1. How did you find the tutorial?
I found the tutorial easy to follow.
Each process was very clearly explained.
2. Have you made covers before?
I have made a few covers in the past but have always struggled to achieve a really good fit.
3. Would you do another tutorial?
Absolutely. I can’t wait to start on the next tutorial.
4. Would you recommend my training methods?
Definitely.
5. What experience do you have in sewing?
I have made lots of curtains, Roman blinds and cushions.
6. Do you have a furnishing business? If none, would you want to start a business later in the course?
Yes I do have a soft furnishings business.
7. Do you think the tutorials are good value for money compared to other courses?
I do think they are value for money. Years ago I attended a four day course which cost a few hundred pounds. There was only enough time to focus on one chair, and I didn’t feel any more confident afterwards.
8. Any other feedback?
I have searched for a loose cover training course a few times over the years without success. The one I attended about twenty odd years ago was about 190 miles away. I’m so excited about doing this course as it looks like it’s going to include quite a few different styles and shapes of furniture. Some people asked me to make some covers for a Parker Knoll suite, which I’ve noticed you are including in one of your tutorials, so it should be good timing.
I am very proud of my students as they are really taking the time to learn and take action. If you want to see some samples of my projects, check out my business website and see for yourself.
