Beginners Upholstery in a Day with Jenny Jones

Join us for a fun day, which gives you the opportunity to learn the basics of upholstery and also produces a useful piece of furniture. A drop in seat for a dining chair or a small stool are suitable items to begin with.

Beginning with webbing and a base of hessian, we work up through the filling layers and finish off with the top cover in fabric of your choice or even a tapestry or embroidery you have worked.

The tutor can provide all the materials you may require at reasonable cost and the use of any tools needed.

Jenny is a fully qualified C&G tutor and has taught upholstery for over 20 years.

In addition to spending your time crafting there is a coffee shop on site - O For Coffee. Tudor Rose Patchwork offers students 10% discount on anything consumed from O For Coffee. As well as a large selection of hot and cold drinks, the menu includes jacket potatoes, sandwiches, paninis, toasties, soups. For those with a sweet tooth there is also a variety of cakes baked on site including gluten free and vegan options.
