This client was ready to get rid of the country blue gingham that she’d had for about 10 years, and go a with basic white. Her back cushions were attatched, so I cut them off. They had a single row of piping originally (pillow style) and we ended up boxing them to give them a cleaner look.
When I cut off the back cushions the filling wasn’t contained…it was just loose polyfil that was coming out. I knew she was going to need to be able to take off the covers and wash them. So I made muslin covers to contain the batting.
Here is the before of the loveseat…blue/cream gingham.
After…white denim slipcovers with the back cushions “boxed” (2 rows of piping).

Couch…after
Couch and loveseat together.
You can barely see the lapped zipper on the back corner… just the way I like it.
WOW! You are so talented – the couch and loveseat look amazing – like a pic out of Crate & Barrel or Pottery Barn. Nicely done!
