# Can I buy a second set of sofa covers in another color or fabric?

*Yes, and it's the kindest thing you can do for one sofa: a set for wash day, and a set for a change of mood.*

Also asked as: Can I buy different color covers separately?; Do you offer other materials for the couch covers?

> **The quick answer:** Replacement floor sofa covers are sold separately, so you can keep a second set in another color or fabric. Stock corduroy covers are the quickest to send. Velvet, linen, teddy bouclé or soft performance fabric covers are made to order, cost more than corduroy and take longer, so ask the workshop for current production and delivery times in writing.

## Stock corduroy or another fabric, made to order

| What you want to know | Stock corduroy | Velvet, linen, teddy bouclé, soft fabric |
|---|---|---|
| Fabric | Ribbed corduroy, the same as the sofa | Your chosen code from that fabric's chart |
| Time | Quickest to ship, from stock | Cut and sewn to order, so it takes longer |
| Cost | The base price for a cover set | Costs more than corduroy; pale shades such as bone can run a little higher |
| How to order | As a separate cover set | Ask for a covers-only quote in your code |

## Corduroy in January, linen in July: a second cover set

My friends, look at the stack in the photograph: burgundy velvet, olive, aqua velvet and oatmeal, each finished with contrast piping. That is what a second set can do. One set goes into the wash while the other stays on, and the same sofa can wear ribbed mustard corduroy in January and a cool oatmeal linen in July.

Let one color speak and the others listen: if your rug is busy, choose a quiet second set. Hold a swatch against the room in daylight before you commit; [screen versus swatch](https://cushionguide.com/guides/cushion-color-screen-vs-daylight/) explains why. For fit and sizing, see the [floor sofa replacement covers](https://cushionguide.com/guides/floor-sofa-replacement-covers/) Pattern, and browse [cushion covers](https://cushionguide.com/cushions/cushion-covers/), [corduroy](https://cushionguide.com/fabrics/corduroy/) and [bouclé and teddy](https://cushionguide.com/fabrics/boucle-and-teddy/). Which color would your sofa wear in winter?

## Before you ask for a covers-only quote

- ✓ The fabric family and color code you want.
- ✓ Whether you need the set soon (stock corduroy) or can wait for a made-to-order fabric.
- ✓ A note if you're choosing a pale shade like bone, which can be quoted a little higher.

> **Tailor's margin:** A second set of floor sofa covers lets you wash one while the other is on; stock corduroy is quickest, and other fabrics take longer because they are made to order.

> Replacement floor sofa covers in velvet, linen or teddy bouclé are cut and sewn to order, so stock corduroy is the set that goes out first.

## Buyer questions

**A common question:** Can my replacement sofa covers come in linen or velvet instead of corduroy, and how long would that take?

**The workshop's answer:** Corduroy covers are in stock and the quickest to ship. Velvet, linen or soft performance fabric covers are made to order at a higher price than corduroy and take longer, because each set is cut and sewn to order. The quote for your color code comes with the timing.

**A common question:** Could I get a second set of covers for my floor sofa in another color or fabric?

**The workshop's answer:** Yes. Covers can be made in velvet, linen or teddy bouclé, and a full set is quoted on request; a bone or off-white set was once quoted a little higher than standard colors. A second set lets you swap covers while one is washed.

**A common question:** Are the floor sofa and its covers velvet or corduroy?

**The workshop's answer:** Corduroy. The teddy floor sofa, pouf, ottoman and replacement covers all use the same ribbed corduroy in every color. Listings that said velvet were corrected; velvet is a separate option.

## Questions buyers ask next

### Is the velvet for replacement covers cotton velvet?

No. It's synthetic, polyester or a poly-cotton blend, not cotton, linen or silk velvet. It resists crushing, wear and wrinkles better than cotton velvet. For natural fiber, choose the 100% linen range or a cotton-linen fabric.

### Will linen replacement covers be pure linen?

Usually not. The standard linen charts are blends or linen-look fabrics, chosen for durability and easy care: polyester, linen-polyester or cotton-linen. A separate 100% linen chart and 100% cotton fabrics are available on request.

### What fabrics can a custom cover set be made in?

Three main indoor families, linen, velvet and easy-clean soft fabric, each with a chart of roughly 40 colors, plus teddy, corduroy, 100% cotton or linen, faux leather and a water-repellent outdoor range. More fabrics can be sourced on request.
