The invention concerns a process for folding a flexible piece, in particular to upholster an object such as chair fitting with a flexible cover. The upholstering or covering process comprises cutting out a flexible piece (25) to a shape corresponding to that of the object plus a border on its contour, providing the edge of this border with a tensioning thread sliding within a passage preserved by auxiliary threads, covering the object with the piece so that the border provided with the tensioning thread project beyond the object contour, folding back the border and applying tractions in opposite directions on the two ends (5a, 5b) of the tensioning thread to tighten and to fold this border, lastly, after the tractions have been applied, locking the ends of the tensioning thread either by tieing them together or by stapling them to the back of the object or by crushing a punched-out clip (31) on the back of the object.
