These photos show the chair at the beginning of its upholstery project. The first records its original patterned seat and worn wooden frame. The next two show different coverings on the seat during the early work, before the chair receives its finished upholstery.

Cutting foam for the chair seats

For the inner padding, I used a bed topper and cut the foam to fit each chair seat. Cutting it to size by hand was difficult; there are better ways to do that now. These photos show the second step of the upholstery project, before the new covering went on.
