You've inspired me. I saw a retro chair on Craig's list that was pink. I decided it would be too costly to have reupholstered. But now I'm going to do it myself. I know a great place in my neighborhood that sells retro fabrics. Thank you thank you!

Nice job!

I've reupholstered a few things in my day, and it's mostly - as you describe - brute force and determination.  ;o)

I'm a sucker for a creative use of duct tape...and I think you raised by standard by which I'm going to be judging "creative" now!

I hope your unique example here will convince a few people to not go the oh-so-generic slipcover route.  ;o)

Oh, and congratulations to you for sticking with a project that took so long to complete.  I know that the longer a project takes to complete (for whatever reason) the harder it is to finish it (lost parts, other time demands, other projects that become more urgent, etc.).
