ONE of EACH Size and Shape of cushions or cases is required for us to copy for the duration of the order process, (we do not need the entire cushion, just the case/cases).

CASUAL Potato Skins Slipcovers - HOW TO MEASURE FOR YOUR NEW SLIPCOVER
- Remove ALL LOOSE SEAT & BACK CUSHIONS before taking measurements.
- If you have back/side cushions that are attached but look like they come off, measure over top of them.
- 3 measurements of your furniture FRAME are required plus ONE of EACH size and SHAPE of cushions brought in for us to copy for the duration of the order process, (we do not need the entire cushion, just the case/cases).
- Measure left to right (one complete measurement) and front to back *(broken up into two measurements). The left to right measurement determines what size cover you need. Chairs, sofa beds or rounded arm furniture often need larger covers for the extra contours.
- If you fall in-between dimensions i.e. measured 136" for a loveseat choose the next largest size...sofa at 140".
- Sectional sofas are often missing arms or have no arms. Simply provide the same measurements.
- For sectionals with a sofa bed and one arm is missing indicate this when you order your cover.
- We can make armcaps from either an actual size tracing of the front of the arm or from original armcaps.
- If you have back/side cushions that are attached but look like they come off, measure over top of them.
- If you are supplying your own fabric it must be at least 54" or wider and preferably a polycotton blend. We also suggest that you wash it first.
- For fabric that has to be matched (stripes) buy extra. i.e Loveseat sofa bed measured 145" with 2 seat & 2 back cushions. You would need approximately 10.5 yrds of fabric for the base, 6 yrds for seat & back cushions and arm caps and 3 yrds for piping.

If you are supplying you own fabric it must be at least 54" or wider and preferably a poly-cotton blend. We also suggest that you wash it first.
For fabric that has to be matched (stripes) -- buy extra. i.e. Love seat sofa bed measured 145" with two seat and two back cushions. You would need approximately 10.5 yards of fabric for the base, 6 yds for seat and back cushions and arm caps and 2 yds for piping, for a total of approximately 18.5 yds. Allow a little extra if pre-shrinking.
Chairs, sofa beds or rounded arm furniture often need larger covers for the extra contours. If you fall in-between dimensions i.e. measured 136" for a love seat choose the next largest size...sofa at 140".
Sectional sofas are often missing one arm or have no arms at all. Simply provide the same measurements. For sectionals with a sofa bed and one arm is missing, indicate this when you order your cover.
