    So I get how you can internally sew all seams except the final one - how do you do it?

      you generally sew all except one seam with the piece turned inside out. then you flip it and stuff it and finish that last seam. you have the edges of both sides folded inside and pinned in place, and when you pull your stitches tight it looks just like all the other seams.

      Pure conjure: stich it, but leave the stitches extremely loose until you turn it right side out.

      Furniture samples, when someone like La-Z-Boy gets a new line of furniture they get a chain loaded up with swatches of leather to compare colors. I just grab then when they don’t carry that line anymore

        do you have to work at a la-z-boy retailer to swing that, or do you just roll up as a customer and ask for old samples?

          Honestly think they were offered to the shop directly but I’m sure it wouldn’t hurt to ask
