Upholstery, done properly

I've worked in upholstery since 1981. I learned from my grandmother and passed what I could on to 2,390 apprentices.
Apprentices come in nervous and leave proud. That's my favorite part. I'm usually the first one in and the last to leave.
More about Fatima
Some of my old apprentices now run their own shops. I couldn't be prouder.
