(More customer reviews)I liked this book very much and I have learned a lot from it. As a beginner in upholstery it showed me exactly how to proceed and what I would need to undertake some upholstery work of my own. It has good colour photographs and is easy to understand. The author has patiently and comprehensively explained what needs to done in order to create a beautiful piece of work. I would recommend it to friends and colleagues alike or anyone else interested in knowing more about developing their upholstery skills.
