Default Need my cushions of lanai furniture recovered

Does anyone have a recommendation for an upholster or seamstress to make new covers for my exterior cushions? The current cushion covers could be used as a pattern. There are two chairs and a loveseat. TIA

If you are looking at sunbrella fabric, it $30 a yard. I made my own cushions, but I can buy the same sunbrella replacement for about the same cost, not counting my time. Try amazon, wayfare, overstock, and bed bath and beyond

At the end of the 466a in Wildwood, turn left, first building on right is an upholstery shop. Faded letters on building. Can’t remember the name, am in Nova Scotia until fall. She does a great job, reasonable prices. She did our lania cushions.

I was going to say the same thing. I did get a break on Sunbrella fabric at Fabric.com. It was only eleven dollars a yard.

I had my 4 cushion love seat, 2 cushion chair and 1 cushion hassock done by Perfect Porch. They are covered in Sunbrella fabric and I had new foam cushions put in them because some of them were mildewed. I think it cost about $700 ($100 a cushion) and when I checked on line shopping, I couldn't get a better price in the fabric and size that I wanted, and I don't sew myself anymore. They used the current cushions as a size guide. Excellent job.

I just used Lake Upholstery to recover some bar stools, did a great job and was reasonably priced. Tried to have the same chairs recovered by Aurora's (the one in Wildwood), he had them for over 6 months and never touched them. I would definitely recommend Harry at Lake Upholstery.

You may be able to find some pretty nice replacement cushions, mass produced too;
