## Measuring

- [Does the listed size of a floor cushion include the backrest?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/floor-cushion-size-with-backrest-total-depth/): Whether a floor cushion size includes the backrest depends on the listing: on the meditation set it covers the seat only, while on cushion-with-backrest sets it is the total footprint.
- [What do you need from me to make seat and back cushions for my chairs?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/measure-armchair-seat-and-back-cushions/): To make seat and back cushions for a garden or patio armchair, send the width between the armrests, the seat depth and the back-cushion height you want, plus a photo of the chair or its reference model.
- [Do I subtract the seat cushion thickness when measuring for back cushions?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/back-cushion-height-subtract-seat-thickness/): Yes: measure the total back height, then subtract the seat cushion thickness, because the backrest sits on top of the seat cushion.
- [Will you confirm my cushion size with a drawing before you make it?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/cushion-size-approval-drawing-before-production/): Yes: before production the workshop turns your measurements into a drawing of the agreed dimensions, often converted to centimeters, and makes the cushion exactly to the layout you approve.
- [Should I give my exact measurements or make the cushion a bit smaller?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/exact-measurements-or-size-down-custom-cushion/): No, don't make the cushion smaller than the bench: give the true, exact size of the space, end to end, without subtracting half an inch or a centimeter.
- [How do you measure for a corner floor cushion?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/corner-floor-cushion-measurements-wall-sides/): A corner floor cushion is measured by its two straight sides, the ones that sit against the walls and meet at the 90-degree corner.

- [What do the numbers in cushion sizes mean, like 28 x 52 inches?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/cushion-size-numbers-meaning-depth-by-length/): On these listings the first number is the width, meaning seat depth from front to back, and the second is the length, so 28 x 52 in (71 x 132 cm) means 28 in deep and 52 in long.
- [Which side of a cushion is the length and which is the width?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/cushion-length-vs-width-which-side-is-which/): On a cushion, length is the long side, measured left to right across the front, and width is the short side, measured from the front edge to the back edge, the same as seat depth.
- [Which measurement is the depth on an angled window seat?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/trapezoid-window-seat-depth-measurement/): Depth is the straight line from the front edge to the back edge at 90 degrees, taken at the deepest point, never along the angle.
- [How thick should my cushion be to get the seat height I want?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/cushion-thickness-for-seat-height/): Seat height is bench height plus cushion thickness, so subtract your bench height from the seat height you want.
- [How do I measure an L-shaped bench so the corner cushions don't overlap?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/l-shaped-bench-cushion-measurements-corner/): Measure each arm of the L from the back corner to its end, plus the seat depth, and the workshop shortens one cushion by that depth so the two butt together without overlapping.
- [Can you notch a cushion to fit around a window casing?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/cushion-with-notch-cut-out-around-casing/): Yes, a window seat cushion can be notched to clear a window casing so it sits fully against the wall.

- [Do I need to measure the slanted sides of a trapezoid or bay window cushion?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/measure-slanted-sides-trapezoid-cushion/): Yes, measure both slanted sides of a trapezoid cushion, because they can differ, but the workshop treats them as a check, not the master dimensions.

- [Can you work out the cushion size from a photo of my space?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/cushion-size-from-photo-or-measurements/): No: the workshop won't estimate a cushion size from a photo, because that leads to mistakes, and it can't give an exact size without your measurements.
- [What if my window seat measurements don't add up because the corners aren't square?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/cushion-measurements-dont-add-up-not-square/): If your window seat measurements don't add up, nothing is cut: the workshop draws the cushion to scale, checks that the shape closes, and asks you to re-measure named edges, measure both diagonals or fill in a lettered outline.

Can I still get it?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/discontinued-fabric-color-code-reorder/): Often, yes: ask the workshop before you pick a substitute, because a fabric color missing from the chart may only be renumbered, may be re-added for your reorder, or, if truly discontinued, can be replaced with the nearest available code.

- [How long does it take to make a custom cushion before it ships?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/custom-cushion-production-time-before-shipping/): A custom cushion is made by hand to order before it ships, so production time depends on the piece: simple pieces are quickest, most custom orders take longer and bigger orders longer still.
- [Why hasn't my cushion order gone into production yet?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/cushion-production-waiting-fabric-code-shape-sketch/): A custom cushion order is usually waiting on you: the cover isn't sewn until your fabric code is confirmed, and for custom shapes the fabric isn't cut until you send a sketch or drawing of the exact shape.
- [Do curved or complex custom cushions take longer to make?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/complex-custom-cushion-shapes-lead-time/): Yes, curved and complex custom cushions take longer than standard ones, because every curve goes to the workshop's most experienced craftsman.
- [How long does a modular floor sofa take to arrive after I order?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/modular-floor-sofa-delivery-time/): A ready-made modular floor sofa reaches the US sooner than a custom-size one, because a custom length adds its own cutting and sewing before the sofa ships by air express with UPS or FedEx.

Is my whole cushion set or sofa really in there?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/cushion-package-too-small-vacuum-compressed/): Yes, a tiny package can hold your whole order: cushions, floor cushion sets and sofas ship vacuum-compressed, so a full set with seat, backrest and armrests fits in a small, flat parcel.
- [One cushion still hasn't expanded after a few days. What should I do?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/cushion-not-expanding-after-vacuum-packing/): A foam cushion that hasn't fully expanded usually recovers if you take the cover off, shake, pull and pinch the foam, and give it a few more days.

- [I only received the cover. Where is the foam insert?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/only-received-cushion-cover-no-foam/): If you received the cushion cover but no foam, look again: foam inserts are vacuum-compressed inside their covers for shipping, so a finished cushion can look like an empty cover.

- [How do I open a vacuum-packed cushion without cutting the fabric?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/open-vacuum-packed-cushion-safely/): Open a vacuum-packed cushion by hand, not with a knife: there is no protective layer between the cover and the plastic, so a deep cut goes straight into the fabric.
- [Doesn't vacuum-packing ruin a foam cushion?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/does-vacuum-packing-damage-foam-cushion/): No, vacuum packing in transit does not damage a foam cushion: the foam returns to full shape once the bag is opened, usually in about 24 to 48 hours.

## Shipping & delivery

- [Do you ship on weekends or during holidays?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/weekend-holiday-shipping-delays/): No, finished cushions don't ship on weekends or during the workshop's holiday closures, because the workshop is closed and couriers don't collect.
