Glad I inspired you to enhance your chairs ...Tammy,<br />Glad I inspired you to enhance your chairs with custom covers.<br /><br />The templates all have curves and strange nooks. Really the best way to do it, especially if you have so many! Is to purchase a cheap cover like the Gobo and carefully remove the seams so you can use each piece as the pattern template.Jenn at Creative Traditionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09641659545813677717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2154835589308057139.post-70105108118265927392012-07-31T02:55:04.155-07:002012-07-31T02:55:04.155-07:00wow! you have so inspired me to recover my chairs....wow! you have so inspired me to recover my chairs. I have 10 chairs though.

I've never measured just 1 chair cover, but I would expect if you are only making one you would need to get about 1.75 to 2 yards to accommodate all the large pieces and pattern specific placement. If you are going to use 42-44" fabric then you'll need to get 3.5 or more yards because you'll have to open the fabric up to cut the larger Back piece.<br /><br />Hope this helps!Jenn at Creative Traditionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09641659545813677717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2154835589308057139.post-32456951499833220422012-06-12T20:33:07.882-07:002012-06-12T20:33:07.882-07:00Did you use 2.75 yards of fabric for one or both c...Did you use 2.75 yards of fabric for one or both chairs?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04930202956202067406noreply@blogger.com
