# My cushion is bigger than the largest size on the listing. Can I still order it?

*The size drop-down is a price bracket, not a ceiling, partner. Your tape measure outranks it.*

Also asked as: Max depth offered is 40¼ in (102 cm) but I need 105; My bench is longer than your biggest size

> **The quick answer:** Yes: choose the largest size option and write your exact measurements, or upload a drawing, and the cushion is made to that size. A 20 x 94 in (51 x 239 cm) cushion was ordered on the 20 x 92 in option. Very long pieces may get a 'Custom for you' option or be priced as two units, yet still sewn as one.

## Key facts

- If your size is beyond the listing, choose the largest option.
- Production follows the size you write or the drawing you upload, not the option you picked.
- The drop-down sizes mainly set the price bracket.
- For very long or unusual sizes, the workshop can add a 'Custom for you' option at the agreed price.
- An oversize cushion can be priced as two units and still sewn as one piece; write 'make as one piece' in the order.
- Seats over 150 in (381 cm) can be ordered as two cushions, each with its exact size.

## The follow-ups, one message at a time

1. **“Which option do I click?”**: The largest one. Need 41 3/8 in (105 cm) deep and the menu stops at 40 1/8 in (102 cm)? Pick the 40¼ in (102 cm) option, write 41¼ in (105 cm).
2. **“Will you really make it 94 in if I chose 92?”**: Yes. The written size or uploaded drawing is what gets cut; the option sets the price. The [personalization note](https://cushionguide.com/guides/custom-cushion-personalization-note/) is where it goes.
3. **“It's way past the menu. Now what?”**: For very long or unusual sizes, the workshop adds a 'Custom for you' option to the listing at the agreed price.
4. **“It's priced as two cushions. Do I get two?”**: Only if you want two. A 106.5 in (271 cm) banquette cushion priced as two 20 x 52 in (51 x 132 cm) units was sewn as one. Write 'make as one piece' in the order.
5. **“Should I split it anyway?”**: Past 150 in, often yes. The Pattern on [one piece or two](https://cushionguide.com/guides/long-bench-cushion-one-piece-or-two/) helps decide where.

## A 154.5 in window seat, ordered as two

A buyer in the US had a window seat over 150 in (381 cm) long. It was ordered as two corduroy cushions of 77.25 x 22 in (196 x 56 cm), 154.5 in (392 cm) end to end. The buyer picked the closest size option and wrote each cushion's exact size and fabric in the Personalization box.

## Why the menu stops where it does

A listing can't hold every length a real room produces, so the drop-down stops somewhere. Past that point the price is set by hand, and the cushion is still cut from your numbers. Give the exact size of the space, not a trimmed one: the workshop handles the sewing allowances.

For long [bench cushions](https://cushionguide.com/cushions/bench-cushions/) and [window seat cushions](https://cushionguide.com/cushions/window-seat-cushions/), try the [bench cushion builder](https://cushionguide.com/studio/bench-cushion-builder/), and read the Pattern on [sizes that aren't on the menu](https://cushionguide.com/guides/custom-size-cushion-not-on-menu/).

What does your tape read, wall to wall?

> **Tailor's margin:** A size drop-down sets the price bracket, not the cut: choose 20 x 92 in, write 20 x 94 in, and the cushion is made at 94 in.

> Priced as two, sewn as one: an oversize bench cushion can be billed as two units and still made in one piece if the order says 'make as one piece'.

## Buyer questions

**A common question:** My cushion is bigger than your largest option. Can I still order?

**The workshop's answer:** Yes. Pick the largest range, for example 40¼ in (102 cm) deep when you need 41¼ in (105 cm), and give your real measurements or a drawing. Production follows your exact size, not the range.

**A common question:** My cushion is a bit longer than anything in the size menu. How do I order?

**The workshop's answer:** Choose the closest listed size, such as 20 x 92 in for 20 x 94 in, or 19¾ x 35½ in (50 x 90 cm) for 20½ x 35½ in (52 x 90 cm), and write your exact dimensions in the personalization box. That's the size that's made.

**A common question:** My window seat is over 150 in. Can it come in two pieces?

**The workshop's answer:** Yes. Send each cushion's exact size, here two at 77.25 x 22 in, pick the closest menu option, and write both sizes and the fabric in Personalization. The pair shipped free to the US.

**A common question:** Should I order the cushion a little smaller than my bench so it fits?

**The workshop's answer:** No. Give the exact size of the space; the workshop handles sewing allowances. Go smaller only for gaps between cushions or a lift-up lid that must clear.

## Questions buyers ask next

### Do I pay for my exact size or for the option I picked?

For the option you pick: its price is what you pay, while the cushion is cut to the size you write. For sizes far beyond the menu, the workshop sets an agreed price through a 'Custom for you' option instead.

### How big can a corner floor cushion go?

The standard maximum is 48 in (122 cm) per side, though a 58 in (147 cm) corner cushion has been made. Small ones go down to 25 x 25 in (64 x 64 cm), and standard sizes are about 8 in (20 cm) thick.

### Will a long cushion sewn in one piece match my number exactly?

Sizes are made as written, not rounded, but handmade cushions can vary slightly, and tufted ones by 1-2 in. Piping adds a little to the outer size, so say whether your total must include it.
