Sofa Back

Do-It-Yourself Decorating
A Back Cushion
We are not quite done with that sofa yet! We realized that the problem was how deep the seat cushion is. So we improvised a new back frame from a simple upright board attached to the seat. And for the pillow, we used...yes...none other than our old couch’s cushions! (We decided the couch had to go; it just wouldn’t fit into the setup—see it here.) We sewed another looong slipcover pillow case into which we stuffed three of the couch cushions. The fabric is a neutral upholstery print, which goes okay with all the pillows. Well, I guess that about completes our new sofa!

Interesting combination. You must have had quite an imagination to use all those different pieces to make one beautiful sofa.
