The quick answer

Yes for flat round pillows, made to size such as 20 in (51 cm) across; spherical, fringed and cord-edged pillows are checked with the production team case by case. Two 20 in rounds have been sewn beside a 22 x 22 in (56 x 56 cm) square in matching or contrasting fabric. To quote, send measurements, a reference image, and filled or covers only.

Leave your details and the workshop will call you to confirm measurements, fabric, foam and piping. No prices, dates or payment on this page: it is a request, not an order.

Fabric
The cover cloth: weave, color and care code.
Foam
The core: its density and thickness set the feel.
Piping
The corded seam edge: matching, contrast or none.
Only for this request: no marketing calls or texts. Outside the US, add the country code.
In inches: length × depth × thickness, plus any angles or cut corners.

* Required. A member of the workshop team will call you to talk it through; nothing is charged and nothing is made until you have agreed on every detail with them.

We use these details only to answer this request and make your cushion: your name and contact details, the cushion details and photos you send, the page you came from and the ad or link that brought you, if any. The workshop that makes the cushions receives them. We don't sell them or share them for advertising, and we delete requests after 24 months. Privacy notice for requests.

What to send for a round or unusual pillow

  • The diameter, for a flat round: 16 in (41 cm), 20 in (51 cm), whatever the sofa asks for.
  • The size across, for a sphere. One request was 12 in (30 cm).
  • A reference image of the shape, the edge and any fringe or cord.
  • Filled, or covers only.
  • The fabric, matching your cushions or contrasting. An earlier order's fabric and piping can be repeated.
  • Any squares alongside, 15-20 in (38-51 cm).

Why a sphere gets a second look

A flat round is a familiar pattern at the cutting table. A sphere, a fringe or a cord edge is a different construction, so the team looks before it says yes. That is care, not reluctance.

Start with the throw pillows you already have, then add one shape. The Pattern on matching throw and lumbar pillows helps with fabric and piping, and the pillow cover studio lets you try sizes first. Which shape is missing from your sofa?

A square frames. A circle interrupts. One round pillow is often enough.

Two 20 in round pillows beside one 22 x 22 in square, in matching or contrasting fabric: a flat round pillow is made to size like any square.

Buyer questions

  1. A common question

    Do you make throw pillows to match my cushions, round ones too?

    The workshop's answer

    Yes, in any size, in matching or contrasting fabric; send measurements and a reference image. Past orders included two 14 x 14 in filled pillows in an earlier order's fabric and piping, and a 22 x 22 in square with two 20 in flat rounds.

  2. A common question

    Can your team sew decorative pillows that are round, spherical, fringed or corded?

    The workshop's answer

    The workshop took a request for 15-20 in squares, a 12 in spherical pillow and a 16 in flat round pillow, and checked feasibility with its production team before confirming.

  3. A common question

    Can I see photos of finished pieces before I buy?

    The workshop's answer

    Yes. Ask in messages and the workshop sends real customer photos and videos, close-ups of details, or links to similar finished pieces.

Questions buyers ask next

Is there a warranty on custom cushions?

Warranty terms come from the workshop, not from this site, so ask for them in writing before you order. If a defect appears, send a photo and keep your order conversation handy.

The pillow listing says sold out. Can I still order?

Yes. Sold out only means the listing's stock count ran low. Message the workshop and the listing is restocked, usually the same day; if checkout still fails, a private custom link is sent.

Can a round pillow match the piping on my seat cushion?

Yes. Pillows have been made in the same fabric and piping as a buyer's earlier order, and contrasting fabric is an option too. Quote the fabric and piping codes from your first order when you ask.
