The Junkyard Sofa Series: read Part 1 and Part 2.
After the tufting was finished, I decided to put the back on- I took poster board and staple gunned it to the back- it took 4 poster boards and some batting from the fabric store.
I then took the fabric and aligned the polka dot design in the center and then went out staple gunning to the top wood part.- because the couch curves I had to fold over the fabric on both sides right where it curved- and when I put the trim on I will cover those folds.
Here’s the front pleated- the cushions are being sewn and I’m on the hunt for trim- yay it’s almost done!- I still have to adjust the fabric on the bottom i promise it will be straight!
You like? I LOVE!!!

    Oh my goodness. Beautiful! You’ve given me inspiration. I was contemplating thriwing away my sofa and loveseat. I’m going to try and reupolhster them. My only question is, where and how do I greet the cushions to be fluffy again?
