Spent yesterday reupholstering this office chair to make it last another 9 years.

Before.
Bonded leather doesn’t hold up. I pinned the denim on the reverse side to get a good fit.

Great fit, took apart chair to attach bottom, added some batting for comfort.

Created a little sock for the open end, then using Furoshiki folding techniques I folded the denim outwards and hand stitched in place.

Finished!
