this is the tufted bentwood version as seen in the pic below:

How many yards of fabric do I need? I was thinking less than the eames or eames copies since this one doesnt have the arms and is less sections to cover? Maybe 3 YDS??

Thanks in advance for your help

This is really just a basic upholstery question. I've done a lot of upholstery but nothing with this much tufting. I know that tufting eats up yardage, though.
Try asking on the board below. I've never used it but it looks like a fairly helpful place.

Keep in mind that
reupholstering a Mr. Chair is going to cost more than the chair is worth. Exactly the reason I gave mine to my college-aged son for his apartment.
