you make the best, no nonsense, succinct, user friendly upholstery videos on KZread. Thank you.
Wonderfully clear instructions. I thank you for this tutorial. Love a video without chatter, just precise directions and explanations. Thanks again, you just saved my expensive fanric!
THANK YOU! Delightfully clear sewing instruction, particularly as I'm returning to sewing after 45 years!!! 🥳
Looking for a good, easy to follow tutorial. And I came across yours. Brilliant. Thank you. X
Brilliant! Thank you. <3
Would it really be possible to re upholster an old chair so it looks decent after having gone through this course?
Thank you!!! I have been looking all over for this
Thank You for this demonstration.

this is very good but do have a video on how you use your tack hammer as I couldn't quite make it out. thanks
excellent. many thanks
where are you located and do you do other people's reupholestering?
Love this idea. Trouble for me is that we purchased the sofas and cannot get matching fabric. I am going to try to colour match some plain fabric as near as possible.
Wonderful demo, thank you ❤
Thank you, Alison and guest upholsterer, Deborah. I'm a male moved on to small narrowboat a while ago and looking to have a go at making some cushions and covers. Excellent tutorial. Looking forward to having a bash. Thank you for sharing your skills.
Thank you for this clear and concise tutorial. I have been commissioned to make new covers for a client and will definitely use your techniques!
Wow this is a really amazing tutorial. Thank you!
Where have you been all my life??
Ps Camera Person did really well too! 🥂
Thank you Alison Very informative. The zip advice was great. I watched 6 other videos then found yours. The best by far 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
🥳
great instructions!....thank you so much!
Brilliant tutorial really enjoyed it now I have the confidence to cover the cushions on my camper well explained thanks so much.
I really like the Stodoys plans.
Could I use Velcro instead of zipper
Cool video. However, you should take instructions from Woodprix if you want to learn how easy it is to do.
This is very beautiful I must say
Thank you for explaining this Alison it makes it so much easier to do now 👏
Very nice work! What color is it?
It is a dark green velvet fabric 💚
@@alisonscottupholstery7832 it looks gorgeous 🤗. Also I found your channel looking for a box cushion tutorial. I’ve looked and tried many many others. My mind just doesn’t work that way! Yours is hands down the one that makes the most sense to me. I made one along watching your video yesterday!! It didn’t turn out quite right but my machine was acting up. I’m going to try again w a different machine. Not to be dramatic but your video is life changing to me. I love doing upholstery but have never been able to get those darn cushions !! I’ve tried so many times. Not to knock my own country (!!) but what really helped was using cm. I’m more familiar than most Americans bc I worked as an ICU therapist for years. Just not something we use here. Sorry for the long reply just wanted you to know how much you helped me. ❤️
Wondering what preferred zipper you use. #3 or 5? Just trying to source some now.
Hi Trish, I would suggest 5. Hope all goes well- do share photos and tag me on Instagram or Facebook @alisonscottupholstery
I love your accent. Can you give me some lessons please love your teaching
Thank you Clara. Please visit my website www.alisonscottupholstery.co.uk for my full catalogue of online traditional upholstery tutorials :-)
Really helpful video! I’m just doing a similar box so this is perfect timing and all the other videos are super helpful too 👍🏼
This tutorial is really good. You explained things so well and made it very understandable. I made two seat covers for a sofa. Thank you so much.
People may not use macassar, but plenty of people still regularly use other hair oils and butters. My whole family does and there's an entire side of YT devoted to hair care videos made by others who do too. So for those of us looking to protect our sofas and not leave _soul glow_ stains, I guess antimacassars it is!
Brilliant Tutorial, Love the tips and well explained
Super video. Thank you so much xx
I cannot find the Fire Label on my 3 seater sofa! Is it common practice for the label to be 'inside' the bottom of the sofa frame, ie, remove the base covering to locate it? I wanted a Charity Shop to take my sofa away but they say they will not if it doesn't have a label. What can I do, please?
Thank you, this was very helpful
This is such a brilliant tutorial, I wanted to make a cover for a bench seat cushion. I've never sewn before, and my sewing machine has remained unused for years, until now, I understood everything you went through, and I have achieved a really nicely finished cover, very proud of my first project, thank you so much for this video.
LOVED IT....Thanks much!
Fab tutorial ... thank you. Would you mind doing one on T shaped cushions?
Thank you Alison. Great stuff!
Could you share video one of tools? 😀
I've been doing upholstery for 30 odd years and this is the best explanation of these cuts that I've found! Thank you for making my future 'awkward' leg cuts a lot more easier.
How do I tell the length of zipper I have to buy for the cover pls reply
The best cushion cover tutorial I've every saw so far on KZread , now I feel confident to sew my own cushion covers that I've been trying to make so long ,thank you so much miss , it ws not in inches, but u took your time in explaining hw to do it and I understood every bit of it very well
Thank you so much! This video was a seriously great help.
Clear, concise and at a good pace - thank you!
Well done Deb, great tutorial. X
Please ask Deb to make more videos!
