Buyer questions

  1. A common question

    Which piping color would go with my main fabric? I can't decide.

    The workshop's answer

    The workshop suggests pairings and sends example photos: cream piping for a soft contrast, tone-on-tone green or a contrasting gold with a chenille, forest green with burnt terracotta.

  2. A common question

    Is the underside of the cushion the same fabric as the top?

    The workshop's answer

    Yes, the cushion is the same fabric all around. The one exception is the non-slip base option, which replaces the bottom panel with non-slip fabric.
