from £255.00 
Spend a weekend learning the craft of modern upholstery in the unique setting of Torr Vale Mill in the Peak District.

Over two days, you’ll build your own Queen Anne footstool from frame upwards, learning the techniques that underpin professional upholstery. This is not a demonstration or a kit assembly workshop — you’ll work through the full process yourself, guided step by step.

With just six makers per weekend, the groups are intentionally small. There is time to understand each stage properly and to leave with a beautifully made piece you’ll be proud to have in your home.

No previous experience is needed — just a willingness to learn and enjoy the process of making something well.

What You’ll Make

During the weekend you’ll craft a classic Queen Anne footstool, built from the frame upwards.
You’ll learn how to:
• Prepare and web the frame
• Build up the structure of the stool
• Cut and fit fabric
• Finish with traditional detailing
By the end of the weekend you’ll leave with a completed footstool ready to take home.
Two sizes are available:
Small Stool (38cm x 43cm) 
Large Stool (43cm x 71cm)
Fabric is not included in the course price, but you are welcome to order fabric through us ahead of the weekend if you’d like guidance choosing something suitable.
