Yeah, I saw these last week too. Apparently I'm not the only one noticing their fabulous-ness! And, noooooooo, I am not doing the upholstering. They are a little advanced for my upholstering skills. They are being professionally done, and are going to be amazing!
I so want to reupholster another chair for the house. There is a certain Ikea chair that is aching to get tossed and replaced with a fancy high-backed chair in a block pattern fabric.
I actually JUST picked up my chair that I had redone similarly. I was going to use that EXACT fabric; however, I found out that it is too thin to use as an upholstery fabric (and I wanted to give you a heads up). I ended up using an outdoor canvas fabric that worked great! Here is the chair I re-did: http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f304/sarahjoj/after1.jpg

Thanks for the thought. It's actually 7oz. cotton which is suitable for light upholstery. You chairs turned out fabulous though! Thanks for the pic!
