Chair Slipcover Accents Wood Detail

The scrolled arms and feet on this vintage chair were too pretty to cover up.  So I came up with a slipcover design that shows off the exposed wood detail. Here’s what I did:

• Created a tapered arm opening with a few stitched down pleats — sort of like a little cuff.
• Boxed in lower arm and used welt cord to define the curved design on the sides.
• Kept hemline short and neat, just above the feet.

Fabric: washed Carr-Go Canvas, color white.
