Buyer questions

  1. A common question

    Can you make water- and stain-resistant seat cushions for my outdoor sofa set?

    The workshop's answer

    Yes. One set covered two seats of 37 x 22 in (94 x 56 cm), one of 43.3 x 22 in (110 x 56 cm) and a 31.5 x 15.7 in (80 x 40 cm) bench. The shop quoted the seat cushions first, then again with backrests for all four, and discounted both.

  2. A common question

    Can you make tie-on cushions for vintage ladder-back dining chairs?

    The workshop's answer

    Yes. Send a photo of the chair and a simple diagram with the dimensions, including the left and right side edges, plus how many you need. Ties go at the back to hold the cushions on, and the covers are removable and washable. One set was four 4 in (10 cm) pads with sides of about 11 in and front and back widths of 13 and 14 in.

  3. A common question

    Do you sell the ottoman on its own, in the same color as my sofa?

    The workshop's answer

    Yes. The ottoman is 39 x 39 in (100 x 100 cm), and the shop sends a custom purchase link in the matching color.
