Beautiful job on the barstool upholstery and explanation, and exceptionally well-done video -- thank you!

Thank you!!! This is exactly what I needed to know how to do. Now to get rid of those ugly ripped vinyl bar stool tops in the family room.
This was so Majorly HELPFUL...Video is Very Clear and well done! Thank You!
como é bom ver gente talentosa trabalhando!! obrigado pela aula!
Thank you for
your video! I am doing dining room chairs and your video was so helpful as they are piped the same way as the bar stool.
Glad we could help.
Fantastic! What an incredible skill sewing is. Schools should teach this to kids, along with wood shop.
Thanks! Yes, that would be nice.
Perfect tutorial! Thanks so much for sharing!

¡Gracias!
Great video. Very helpful.
Thanks!!!
Thank YOU so much, I was setting it up all wrong, thanks
Glad we could help.
I’m going to try and use this technique with a square stool and one lot of piping. I hope it works just the same!
It should work. You can do it!
Fantastic tutorial! I already feel like an expert just from watching this video and can’t wait to start my project tomorrow
That is good news! Glad to help.
This is a brill post! Thank you for sharing. The only issue I am having is some slight puckering of the fabric when I'm sewing the piping to the top circle. What could be causing that do you think?
When piping or binding has to go around a curve like a circle the inside flange has to expand and the outside piping has to compress. This sometimes results in wrinkling of the fabric. When possible cut the piping along the bias and this will help it to take the curve slightly better.
J ADORE VOTRE TRAVAIL SOIGNEUSEMENT.
Merci!
thanks cindi
Thank you
That’s bad ass
Nice video, I personally wouldn't have bothered with the back tack card underneath, I would of angled the staples and kept them close together just to save time.
Great and helpful! Wondering why you didn't just put an elastic on the bottom so it's all snug and no stapler reqd?
You can do that, but the elastic will allow the fabric cover to move around when an occupant sits on the stool, the staples will not.
great are your skills
+DeeDee Martin Glad you liked it!!!

Haha, love the simplicity of your comment! 😄
Im a cheater, the stool is light enough to put upside down onto the foam and make the allowance and take foam to the fabric for identical circle...😜 love your videos.
May I ask for a measuring video?
Different tips and guides you use for upholstery....
👍👍👍👍👍
Hello, how much would you charge for something like this?
How much material,is need for 2 stools
You can get about 4 up along the width of a 54" wide fabric. So, for every 14 inches of fabric you should be able to make 4 stool tops (not including the piping). One yard of fabric will do the 2 stools and give you enough for straight cut piping.
Hello, how much should we charge for 2 stools like these, thank u in advance
I could get them done in about 1 to 2 hours, I hope the helps. Usually upholstery shops charge the customer about $65 per hour, not including materials.
What can causes pucker when you stapling it to stool?
Since the fabric has to shrink up when stapling around the circle you will get some puckering, that is natural.
Do you sell the rounds like this stool top? I need 17" round.
No, but you can easily cut the foam to the round shape.
Sorry, I meant the wooden rounds.
@@yvonneleach9650 I think you can find wooden rounds at the hardware store: Menards, HomeDepot, Lowes.
@@SailriteDIY Thank you. Not the right size and not in stock.
I just realise that I need a sewing machine to fix my bar stool and I can't even sew with hand properly let alone using the machine. If I don't sew it,will it wrinkle or something?
If the fabric is not sewn with a separate side boxing and is instead simply pulled over the foam and chair base it will have a lot of wrinkles.
@@SailriteDIY Thx for the replies, I think I need to call my mom to help me with the sewing 😅
Go to woodprix if you'd like to build it yourself.
Wouldn't it be easier to just turn the stool upside down and draw a circle on the foam? lol
Yes, that would work great!
Much too complicated
