Fourth Class

In the fourth class I made burlap flaps for all 4 edges of the seat in which cotton was rolled to make an edge at the same height as the wood blocks at the back corners.  Then cotton is placed in the wedge area inside the rolls, and more pieces of cotton are placed in holes in the surface of the seat until it feels even all over.  Then, 2 full layers of cotton are placed over the top and trimmed even with the seat edges.  Finally, a layer of 1" foam is placed on top and stapled down along the edge as shown in the last picture.  It is looking like a chair again!
