I got the first chair done! It turned out ok. I was able to do the back without a seam using the fusible interfacing. I bought the ultra hold iron on interfacing, and it works great! I'm still unsure if I like it without the welting, but it's probably because I'm so used to seeing the chairs with it. My husband thinks they look good without. Once they are all done I probably won't miss it. Well, one down - five to go! Here's the pic:
