Painted Fabric Upholstered Wing Back Chair

I love wing back chairs as these are big, comfy, best place to curl up with a good book and nice music.
I picked up chairs from a acquaintance who upgraded their family room furniture , loaded these babies into our van and came home happily. They were in good shape, the fabric was little faded but no rips and best of all, these were FREE.
Since the fabric was in a good condition, I decided to paint the fabric. Yes, paint the fabric upholstery :) Here is an after of the chair

This is how it looks today and how it looked before
I could wash the cushion cover and rest of the chair was cleaned. I followed the tutorial http://www.hypheninteriors.com/2011/03/painted-upholstery-process-revealed.html
After two coats
I added the faux nailhead trim
