Making custom cushions

When you make a custom cushion you need to consider several factors to get the best results. The first thing to consider is the fabric for the outdoor and indoor cushions. For outdoor cushions, you need to consider the climate and the environment and for indoor cushions, you can consider the look and the level of comfort.

Depending on your climate you should decide whether you need water-resistant fabric, fabric that does not fade out in the sun or fabric that can be cleaned easily. Sunbrella fabric is ideal for outdoor use as it is made from 100% acrylic yarn and is woven. The colour is added during the manufacturing process and does not fade out in the sun and is water resistant.

You need to decide the filling for the cushion depending how it will be used. For outdoor cushions, you can use high-density and quick dry foam as it allows water to pass through it. You can choose a fill depending on the support and the softness required.

To make Sunbrella custom cushions you need to take accurate measurements of the furniture. The custom cushion should fit perfectly to offer a polished and comfortable look. Determine the shape of your cushions.

Select the colour and the design of the fabric that match the furniture style and the outdoor decor. If the fabric for outdoor cushions is fade-resistant then it will look new for a longer time. The fabric is long-lasting and helps to enhance the look of your outdoor space.

Outdoor cushions can be tied to the furniture by using ties and straps so that they do not blow away in the wind. To enclose the cushion you can use zippers or velcro. The closing mechanism should also be durable and water-resistant. For outdoor cushions choose a fabric that is easy to clean. Sunbrella fabric can be easily cleaned with mild soap and water. If the dirt collects on them then it can be easily brushed off. Sunbrella fabric is breathable and can be easily air-dried.

The seams can be reinforced with double stitching and serged edges to enhance durability. You can create a sample cushion to test the fit, design and comfort.
