  • Upholstery Fabric in a Nutshell By: Shelly Miller Leer
    Upholstery Fabric in a Nutshell by: Shelly Miller Leer Teaching you everything you need to know about upholstery fabric is a class in itself. I won’t get into technical textile information and the double rub discussion, but hopefully this will cover enough material (haha! Get it?) so that you’ll feel comfortable shopping for your stunning fabrics. Remember, this is in a nutshell. Upholstery fabric is generally 54”-55” wide and comes on a big cardboard round bolt, unlike apparel fabric which is on flat cardboard. Also, apparel and quilting fabrics are usually 44”-45” wide. Many upholstery weight fabrics are a plain or flat weave cotton with sometimes vibrant and fun prints screen-printed on top. What this means is that the design is just on the surface, it’s not woven into the fabric as a design or texture. Screen-printed fabrics are fine for our first project, however they are a bit stiff and they do tend to fray on cut edges. They are reasonable in price and can add very interesting patterns into a room. If you love it—go for it!! When you’re trying to upholster more contoured furniture, these fabrics can be a nightmare to work with. Fabric clerks will sometimes misinform you and say that certain (obvious) drapery weight fabrics are upholstery fabrics. Well, they are 54” wide and come on the big cardboard roll. But they can be too lightweight and too delicate for upholstery. Remember, the fabric you staple onto your chair seat or back, remove staples and readjust, should not snag or pull or rip.

  • Bolster Pillow
    Bolster Pillow This project will provide you with step-by-step instructions on how to create a bolster pillow similar to the one shown above. This pillow can be used as a great throw pillow or a support pillow for your back. It is recommended that you have Let’s Sew: A Beginner’s Sewing Guide by Nancy Zieman or another basic sewing book nearby for reference. This project is intended for beginning sewers. Have fun and be safe! Written by Ryan Lindell, Aaron Paquette, Jason Phillips, and Andrew Wirick Materials • Two good-quality kitchen towels, preferably fringed (hemmed ends can be used as well) • Needle and matching thread (doubled thread, buttonhole twist, even dental floss!) • Terry cloth scraps, small bolster pillow form, cotton fiberfill or batting • Sewing pins with colored heads and pin cushion • Sewing machine • Iron • Ironing board Special Notes • Be sure that your towels are preshrunk before you start. Do this by washing the towels. • In order for your project to look its best, be sure to press each line of stitching as it is completed. For instructions on proper pressing, consult your beginner’s sewing guide. • Although any of the fillings mentioned above will work, the pillow will look best by using bolster pillow form. See the note in step number 10 on how to use bolster form correctly. • Any sewing terminology used during these instructions will be in bold lettering and highlighted in blue. These terms will be defined at the bottom of each page. For example, on this page, the word hemmed is defined below.

  • FOAM OR FIBER? a Comparison of Fill Material for Outdoor Cushioning
    FOAM OR FIBER? A Comparison of Fill Material for Outdoor Cushioning INTRODUCTION For the average consumer and retail furniture buyer, navigating the world of cushion materials can be a confusing proposition. With a technical community that continues to innovate, it is sometimes difficult to differentiate which innovations create real value in terms of performance and customer experience and which are just enhanced marketing. Polyurethane foam and polyester fiber remain the industry stand- ards, yet the variety of choices that exist within these two options create a decision-making process that is significantly more complex. KEY PARAMETERS IN CHOOSING POLYURETHANE FOAM1,2,3 Polyurethane foam has long been a staple of the cushion industry. Its excellent performance over extended use coupled with a variety of types that can be tailored to specific applications allow retailers to customize their offerings to individual markets. When discussing the material in terms of outdoor performance, there are a few characteristics that require some consideration. All flexible polyurethane foams have an open cellular structure which, when applied in an outdoor setting, means that moisture can penetrate the body of the foam. While polyurethane foam itself has antimicrobial properties, additional additives are often preferred for use in outdoor applications in order to further protect against the effects of exposure to moisture. The other two main performance elements to consider when reviewing foam are density and indentation force deflection (IFD). Density, typically measured in pounds per cubic foot or kilograms per cubic meter, is one of the key determining characteristics of a foam’s durability. A higher density rating will in most cases equate to longer-term durability in the finished product.
