  1. Fantastic new show-I'll definitely be watching the whole series. I know you mentioned on the show last night that there would be a guide to upholstery on the website and wondered if that may be added at a later date. I've bought an edwardian parlour suite from an auction which I plan to re-stuff and re-upholster. I've tried to find evening classes in my area but to no avail! I've not attempted anything like this before so any tips would be really welcome. Thanks
