While preparing for tomorrow's upholstery tutorial, I realized that I did not tell you enough about foam.
How much cush for you tush?
It is very scientific....not really, you just SIT ON IT! Let me show you. Here is the chair with just springs and burlap
Starting with 1" High Density foam
Next up, 2"
The Papa Bear, 3"
The foam will have a layer of dacron, so I'll test it that way....
Same method for the back
Do you prefer a plush chair, or a firm chair?

I have so many questions. I'll have to write you a long email. But have you or do you ever address how to get to big plump cushion on a couch. Is it thick foam with something in the middle? If it is just foam, how do you remove the squared off look, I don't want a cushion that looks like a box.
You are always so funny and informative! I am working up the nerve to rip the fabric off of 2 harvest gold side chairs I got at a yard sale. They are cane backed and so sturdy but U.G.L.Y. in that 70s gold. Wish you lived closer!
Thanks for finding me! I did not know ready made piping even existed, brilliant!
Cindi, send a photo, I will try to give you some suggestions. Danylle, I wish I lived closer too! Although, something tells me we would get into trouble together!
