The Cutting Table · a question, worked through
Can you make a full daybed set with back cushions and bolsters?
Yes. Start from the mattress; every other piece in the set is sized off that one rectangle.

The quick answer
Yes, a daybed set can combine a fitted mattress cover, back cushions and bolsters in one custom order. One real set paired a 76 x 36 x 6.5 in (193 x 91 x 16.5 cm) cover with three 22 x 22 in (56 x 56 cm) back cushions and two 36 x 10 in (91 x 25 cm) bolsters.

The first message: 'a daybed set, 3 back cushions and 2 bolsters'
Written just like that, it is a complete order. The fitted mattress cover sets the footprint; the back cushions and bolsters are sized to sit on it. The daybed cushions hub shows the finished look.
One real set ran a 76 x 36 x 6.5 in (193 x 91 x 16.5 cm) cover, three 22 x 22 in (56 x 56 cm) pillow-style backs and two 36 x 10 in (91 x 25 cm) bolsters. The bolsters are 36 in long, the cover's depth, so each one spans an end. Tidy arithmetic, partner.
Two real daybed sets, piece by piece
| Piece | Set 1: 76 in daybed | Set 2: twin daybed |
|---|---|---|
| Mattress cover | 76 x 36 x 6.5 in (193 x 91 x 16.5 cm) | 38 x 79 in (97 x 201 cm) |
| Back cushions | Three, 22 x 22 in (56 x 56 cm), pillow style | Two stuffed L-shaped back pillows, about 20 in (51 cm) tall |
| Ends | Two bolsters, 36 x 10 in (91 x 25 cm) | The back pillows run end to end |
Follow-up: 'my daybed has a different contour at the ends'
Fine by us. Back and side pillows are made for daybeds of any shape; the drawing starts from your mattress, not our photos.
For one buyer in the US, the workshop confirmed the mattress at 39.5 x 80.5 in (100 x 204.5 cm), then asked one question: round or L-shaped backrests? Later backrests were cut in the same oyster white corduroy as that buyer's earlier mattress covers. Take your numbers with the daybed mattress cover Pattern. Measure twice; the fabric remembers.
Follow-up: 'can the pillows be linen, and stuffed?'
Yes to both. Back pillows can be made stuffed, like the twin set's two L-shaped backs. One linen set was drawn in centimeters: a 67 x 27.5 x 6 in (170 x 70 x 15 cm) mattress with three 11.75 x 27.5 x 6 in (30 x 70 x 15 cm) back pillows, in heavy pure linen or linen-cotton. If a size moves after you agree on it, the custom listing is updated.
So which backrest does your daybed want: round or L-shaped?
A 76 x 36 in daybed cover took three 22 x 22 in back cushions and two 36 x 10 in bolsters, all made as one custom set.

Buyer questions
- A common question
Can you make my daybed a full set: fitted mattress cover, back cushions and bolsters?
The workshop's answerYes. One set was a 76 x 36 x 6.5 in (193 x 91 x 16.5 cm) mattress cover, three 22 x 22 in (56 x 56 cm) back cushions and two 36 x 10 in (91 x 25 cm) bolsters. Linen versions come in heavy pure linen or linen-cotton.
- A common question
My daybed is shaped differently from the one in your photos. Can the back and side pillows still fit it?
The workshop's answerYes. The workshop confirmed the mattress size, 39.5 x 80.5 in (100 x 204.5 cm), and asked whether round or L-shaped backrests were wanted. The backrests can match fabric from an earlier order, such as oyster white corduroy.
- A common question
I need a cover for a twin daybed mattress plus back pillows. Can you do both?
The workshop's answerYes. A cover for a 38 x 79 in (97 x 201 cm) twin mattress was quoted together with two stuffed L-shaped back pillows, about 20 in (51 cm) tall, running end to end.
Questions buyers ask next
What should I send first for a custom daybed set?
The mattress length, width and thickness, plus photos of the daybed. The workshop confirms the mattress size, asks if you want round or L-shaped backrests, and sizes the back cushions and bolsters to sit on that cover.
Do the back pillows come filled, or only as covers?
They can come filled. One twin set had two stuffed L-shaped back pillows, about 20 in (51 cm) tall, running end to end, made in the same order as the fitted 38 x 79 in (97 x 201 cm) mattress cover.
What happens if I change a size after the set is agreed?
Send the new numbers in your messages. The custom listing is updated to match, as it was for a set with a 76 x 36 x 6.5 in (193 x 91 x 16.5 cm) cover, three back cushions and two bolsters.
