How do I weave the seat in a rush chair?

Hello Jeannie,

pop along to your Public Library and borrow a book on Rush Seating. It should give you all the information you require for materials and method etc. Not something I can really explain on here. You may also find it helpful to join a class or two on the craft. A Craft Fayre is also a good place to find someone who can help you too........Best wishes.

If repairing the rush seat is a bit too complicated, you can replace the seat with wood. I have done this to several chairs :)

Or . . . Google and You Tube have a plethora of tutorials. Here are a few to get you started!

I don't have any advice but if you are able to do it, please post it on here. I think this would be an amazing project to share.
