How Do You Replace A Sofa Cushion?
Whether your dog won’t stop digging in the same spot on your sofa, or your child recently had a fruit punch accident, sometimes you need to replace a single cushion on your sofa. In these cases, you don’t necessarily have to reupholster the entire sofa when simply replacing the one dud cushion will fix your problem. Find the right fabric to make a single cushion for your sofa. To help you find the exact match, either bring a sample of the fabric to the store or take a few detailed pictures of your couch to reference. If you can’t find an exact match, try a two-tone effect by using a complimentary fabric pattern. Remove the upholstery from around the old cushion using a stitch ripper, and use the old upholstery as a pattern to model your new fabric. Depending on preference, you can either measure the original fabric pattern and then use those measurements to model a new cover, or you can simply lay the original upholstery on top of the new fabric and outline the pattern with chalk.
