A while back I was given an old sectional by a kind but eccentric friend.

I don't know much abut couches but it seems nice and well made, she had it upholstered in white silk.

I put in in storage where it's been ever since.

Are sectionals more trouble than they'e worth?
I half want to get it out of storage and start using it.
However due to years of dust, tears and a couple big wine stains I'd have to get it re-upholstered and have no idea how I'd do it?
Something durable? white canvas?



As it's in storage I have no pictures, but it looks a bit like this (found on google images under "white sectional") although mine is a bit sleeker and modern looking with bigger rounds at the end.

How do you prefer trousers to be finished?

  • Plain hem

  • Cuffed (1.5 inches or less)

  • Cuffed (more than 1.5 inches)

  • No preference, as long as the proportions work
