    Followed this tutorial step-by-step to recover my patio furniture cushions. They came out great & I'm so happy I found your page!! Never sewed anything other than a basic pillowcase before, now I feel like a pro!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

    Thanks so much for this video! You easily cut my sewing time in half, and made my sewing project really fun! I made four cushions in under two days & they look great! I found your simple instructions easy to modify for my needs - adding tiebacks, beefing up the foam size a bit & putting an upholstery style zipper in. I did need to add a few pins when sewing the pieces together. Your sewing skills are impressive :) We recently had our dining room chairs professionally reupholstered in the same Vern Yip fabric that you feature in the video. Love it!

    You made it look so easy! I have foam that I bought a looong time ago, I also got fabric and with this tutorial I'm ready to try and make the cushion for a swing.
    I learn by watching RUclips, thanks for an excellent tutorial.

    I don't really sew. I just learned sewing during my high school days. Now that i am a home maker, instead of paying somebody to do stuffs for our apartment homes, i just do it on my own. Thank you so much for this very helpful video. I saved money. I will put piping on my next works soon.

    Thank you for the great video I have used this as reference when making new box cushions.
    I altered my pattern to have the zipper wrap around the edges for an easier fit because camper cushions have a board under the foam.
    I flipped my seams ripper over but I lived your tip on how to sew in the zipper! I was nervous about that and your instructions were perfect. I was a little confused on the note about the width of the zipper but after asking my sister she reassured me you meant the width of the zipper including the fabric not just the teeth.
    You video was fast paced and not repetitive which was great! Thank you for sharing!

    I’ve been looking to replace two patio seats and this video was VERY helpful. Retail prices were $120 to $200 and they weren’t the right size. This video gave me refresher course since I haven’t sewn in a long time, and saved me a lot of money. I was looking at another big retailer who is local and on-line, where I thought I was getting good prices until I found they didn’t carry the upholstery zippers. Then I looked at your shop and the fabric they had “on sale”( LMAO) was drastically beating by your regular (non-sale) prices. I purchased the material, heavy duty thread, zippers, Dacron padding, adhesive spray, 3 yards of fabric marker and machine needles all for less than the other store for 2 yards of fabric and padding. For only $53.00 with free shipping and $5 off from a coupon I found on-line. I am so happy!! On top of all this, when I’m finished, I’ll have two beautiful custom Tommy Bahama cushions and possibly pillows. I just hope they come out as beautiful as this video. I’m little confused on the whole sewing around the corners bit. Thank you

    • @onlinefabricstore
      @onlinefabricstore  4 года назад +2

      I always tell people to keep lots of muslin on hand for that exact reason! I find that making trial runs is the best way to get a fantastic end result. Work out any kinks before using your expensive fabric!

      Yes, "box cushion" is NOT a good beginner project. :) It is, however, far easier than "shaped seam dress with lining and hidden zipper," which was my first project with a zipper. Let's just say I never bothered to hem that dress. :D

  • @lukefontenot7673
    @lukefontenot7673 Год назад

    Thanks for the video. It has proven helpful as we have had to watch it a few dozen times. Two questions when you are cutting the boxing, your calculation states “foam” bit do you also consider the batting as in addition to the thickness of foam? # 2 when you say length of zipper are you referring to the actual length plus 2” or the zipper opening plus the 2”?
