Upholsterer: Freddie Alverson

Designer: Ashley Jorgerson

Fabric used: Tapestria High Praise in American from Carol Fabric. Faux silk Picardie in Paprika by Fabricut. Waterfowl feathers, grey duck down, polyester fibers, custom hardwood frame, webbing.

The clients wanted a very deep couch and loveseat. The client tried the units several times to ensure desired comfort level. Elastic webbing, minimally spaced, and burlap went in before padding. Jute webbing and burlap were used between each back section for support. Each channel was made from firm foam with a layer of Dacron.

Judges comments: Unique and original. Excellent craftsmanship and sewing expertise. Perfect sewing.
