How to repair fraying on the arms of an upholstered chair?
+2
I have a green wing back chair I love but both arm rests are fraying and an ivory lining is showing through. Any ideas on how to stop the fraying and cover it up will be appreciated, thanks!

I would make arm covers that would look nice on the chair. Perhaps using fray check on the fraying areas would stop the fraying and the covers would cover the areas so that the fraying would not continue to spread.
Nancy is spot on. Good luck
Nancy has the right answer.

Old fashioned arm covers. If its thread bare, I haven't found a way to repair it without and expensive reupholstering job.
