Description

In this week's episode of In Stitches, we are delighted to have the honour of talking to Mr David James.

Having started his career back in 1954 at the tender age of 15, David has seen many changes in the world of Upholstery and has a wealth of experience which he is still putting to good use now.

David shares his story with us, from starting with G Plan as an apprentice through to becoming a published author of 7 books, one of which is still the go-to guide for Upholsterers today. We hear how working with students at Nottingham University recently gave him so much joy and David shares what he loves, and what frustrates him, about the trade.

There aren't many who could rival his 67 years experience in the trade so David's story is both insightful and unique!
