I tried to re-upholster the original sofa. I did a really crappy job and don’t know how to fix it without taking it apart and starting over.

So I made one from scratch, which was easier than I thought it would be. But apparently I need a lot of practice. It was way too big and I ended up hating my fabric choice. It looked diseased. And the base was way too big.

It was supposed to be a cross of these two:
Then I made another one from scratch today, and I liked it. It was far from perfect, but it was good enough for me since I don’t have near the talent or patience of some people. But then I put it in the house behind the coffee table/ottoman and it’s too small. Crap.
At least I got my toilet and fridge ordered today.
I love that first one! Very Restoration Hardware. I think they look great and I love your wood flooring.
Thank you, maybe I’ll try to see if I can get one or two of them to work.
Diseased fabric. HA! I totally see where you were going with the second sofa. Could you just make a new taller back for it? Would it be any better scale-wise, then use the lovely blue sofa as a loveseat. Just thinking out loud. The only trick I could offer is to measure like crazy. You wouldn’t think I was so talented (thanks for the shoutout, I’m positively flattered!) if you saw how long it takes me to make everything. I gotta streamline. Bad. Glad the pressure’s off for the deadline! Phew!!
