John French says...

"Yes, Easy! - you must give it a try!"

"You don’t have to be an experienced seamstress to make a successful slipcover. I have specially developed these courses for the seamstress with only basic sewing abilities. Never before has this subject been taught with such simplicity, clarity and thoroughness, making it truly easy and great fun! To many of you, the thought of crafting your own slipcover may seem daunting… but keep in mind:
  • slipcovers don’t require linings
  • slipcovers don’t have facings
  • slipcovers don’t require understitching
  • in fact, slipcovers don’t include collars, lapels, pockets, sleeves, cuffs or waste bands either!!
What I am trying to impress upon you is that slipcovers are far easier to make than you ever imagined. That is why I say, “if you have basic sewing skills, YOU can craft a successful slipcover!!

I so encourage you to give it a try. A whole new world of fun and accomplishment awaits!"
