My chair is very different in structure from Lauren's. For instance, Lauren's chair has the individual coiled springs, while mine has what are called "S-coils" or "Zig Zag springs." They're curvy wires that are held in place by clips. Fortunately, my chair's zig-zag springs were in great shape to start and didn't need replacing.
Compared to the complicated and time-consuming process of tying coiled springs (which Lauren did so well), zig-zag springs only have to be tied horizontally (with ruby twine). This is to ensure that the springs move together, for an even feeling when sitting in the chair.
Once I finished the horizontal tying, I covered the chair's seat, back, and arms with burlap over top of the webbing I put in last week. Next up, we'll be putting in cotton padding and muslin. Stayed tuned!
