WOW, old school upholstery, look at those “Diamond pleats, lots of fun to sew these on an old Singer walking foot.
Still admire those diamond pleats, 0bviously not enough of a selling point, this is what’s been lost in those high priced never ending auctions that are now all the rage. Other than myself, few would apricate the skill & talent that went into upholstering these high back seats.
I like it, and the “personal preference choices” as well. As you say, probably “not selling points” for the “big bucks” tho.
