Turn Fabric Samples Into Chair Upholstery

From the designer: "Ten years ago, we bought these chairs for our dining room. While I absolutely dig their design (they look super elegant and minimalistic) and their build quality is also top-notch ( they're made of rubberwood), the upholstery on them hasn't aged well. The fabric feels to the touch like velour and absorbs any liquid it comes in contact with. Thus, it stains very easily and even water drops leave nasty rings on it when dry. While wandering around in Brussels, I found two abandoned fabric sample books. They regroup a variety of furniture fabrics out of which some are even water and stain resistant! This was the perfect opportunity for me to finally take out my parent's cheap sewing machine and learn how to use it."
