   I also am in the process of fabricating an upolstered headboard for a client .                   I found some styles at the calico corners web site

   I'm thinking about attaching it to the wall .I once saw it done with wood cut

   like a puzzle piece that slipped into another piece mounted on the wall . I'm

   not sure exactly how to make this but I think it is V shaped , any info would be

   appreciated. A s for a fabric ,it depends on your taste , but I'm using ultrasuede

                                           Good Luck with your project,  Susan

   Hi Everybody , I'm an old time seamstress with my first computer . I knew it was gonna take me away from my work,and it has, but when my 1st grandchild was born I immediately got one, I thought just to see her precious little face. But I am starting to get the hang of it and what a great tool! My sweet daughter-in-law even built a web site for me. How great is she! Anyway I have a question; I'm looking for the correct spelling and pronounciation of mattelitiasse' or something like that, white quilted fabric with beautiful little stitches .Thanks

   I believe you mean Matelassé Pronunciation: (mät'lu-sâ"; Fr. matu-lä-sâ')—n. an embossed, compound fabric woven on a dobby or Jacquard loom. Also,mat'e•las•se",mat'el•las•se".Sue B
