The Upholstery for Beginners workshop will be held on 23 January 2027 at Northlight Leeds. Attendees will learn to craft a footstool from scratch, covering the fundamentals of modern upholstery. No prior experience is necessary, and participants should bring one metre of upholstery-grade fabric.
Join our hands-on Upholstery course and craft your own footstool in just one day!

Guided step by step, you'll assemble the structure, add padding, learn to cut and fold corners and finish with your chosen fabric. By the end of the course, you'll leave with a handcrafted piece to take home.
Participants need to bring 1metre of upholstery grade fabric of their choice. All other materials and tools will be provided. The standard footstool on this course is 16"x16" inches. You will be able to pick from a selection of wooden legs to suit your tastes.
