I have done this many times, but these chairs are different. They have a spring in the middle of the wood frame. They were orginally upholstered with wool batting and straw (not horsehair). I would like to use foam. Should I use batting too

In response to an earlier comment concerning springs, I found that the springs in my cushion had been held together by heavy wire, some of which had broken or otherwise come loose. I took a good look at the arrangement, got some similar wire from the hardware store, and reattached the springs, using the undamaged part as a pattern. I put a piece of heavy velvet salvaged from the old chair on top of the springs, then the polyester wrapped foam, and proceeded as above. It’s now time for a new recovery job, and I hope to have pictures and instruction on my website in a few weeks.
