Many customers sleep on the corduroy and high-density foam cushions, often as a floor bed. Tufted floor cushions can also be made without buttons for comfort, keeping the hand-sewn edges. ### Can I get throw pillows to match the floor sofa? Yes. Matching throw, lumbar and scatter pillows are made to any size in the sofa fabric, as covers or filled. Send sizes, quantity, piping choice and fabric codes for an exact quote and payment link. ### How do I judge the color without seeing the sofa in person? Order fabric samples and look at them in daylight where the sofa will stand, then compare them with real customer photos of the same model. A swatch in your own light is a steadier guide than a screen. ## Related at the atelier - [The sofa bars won't lock or keep coming apart.
