Thank you. I'm glad you liked it.

[@annjannace6957]

"AMAZING"!!! That is a lot of work as you said, "BUT" what an accomplishment ! & you have no experience ! !!! I was at a challenging moment when deciding to entail a Kingston Valance, speaking of a lot of work! 96" Valance & side drapes, everything lined pinch pleats, cording, I did a happy dance, it came so professional, husband did the installation, & literally saved thousand $ So glad I took that first step, I guess it's passion & perseverance & Avanti you had both, "GREAT JOB"

[@AvantiMorocha1]

Thank you.

[@maryeilers5695]

[@saran3214]

You are a clever girl! I see how to do this now, very good instructions. I wanted this for a kitchen banquette but now have changed my mind. If I did all that work and my family spilled something on it homocide would result. Thank you.

Thank you 😊

Im working on mine right now using this method! Thanks!

[@anaserraz]

What a great job! I was going to order fabric...but the bleached drop cloth is an excellent idea... especially since drop cloth can shrink when washed, better to have it washed before cutting! I'll just spray fabric protector on it for extract protection against spill and all! Didn't know about add inches to the foam to address the depth shrinkage either. Great tip!

[@shelleymcginty9995]

What a wonderful tutorial!! I’m starting mine today but mine is for a wicker chair…much smaller 😉

Hey what is the batting for

Que linda recámara💪👏✌👍

Gracias 😊♥️

[@josetavera9523]

Would you recommend using waterproof material to prevent staining from coffee or wine?

[@AvantiMorocha1]

No really, I think sewing a waterproof material may be more difficult 😞.

[@josetavera9523]

@@AvantiMorocha1 If sewing it wasn't an issue, would be a good material for daily interior use?

[@xiomaraalvarez7021]

Hola, muy bueno tu video. Pero me gustaría saber de que forma lo lavas, sobretodo por el color claro?

[@AvantiMorocha1]

Hola, los cojines de este estilo no se lavan, es por eso que aplique dos capas protectoras de scotchgard.

[@mkfever2005]

how hard is the foam support?

[@AvantiMorocha1]

Hi, it’s pretty good 😊

[@gretchenweber7734]

That is gorgeous! I am going to buy fabric and supplies and get started on mine. My only question is: You made yours 3 1/2 " wider, but how do I calculate that? I am making a smaller cushion for a table that measures 24 1/2" by 31 1/2". Thank you.

[@AvantiMorocha1]

Hi, thank you! It has been a while since I made it. To be honest, I don’t remember how I did the calculations, but I think I explained it in the video.

[@lyneaugustine4919]

WAOUH Thanks for this vidéo...I hope make it as you ....My english is not perfect...I speak french only...

[@AvantiMorocha1]

You're welcome :)

[@kohakusghost3108]

This tutorial is awesome! I was wondering if you had a link to what canvas drop cloth you used? It looks super soft by the end and I have yet to find a similar canvas that isn't so scratchy. Thanks!

[@AvantiMorocha1]

Hi, you can find the info on my blog avantimorocha.com/diy-french-mattress-cushion/

[@anaserraz]

How much bleach and for how long to get it white

[@AvantiMorocha1]

Hi, I don’t remember, I followed the step of a KZbin video on how to bleach drop cloth for curtains.

[@jennk111]

Your cushion turned out amazing. I’ve been procrastinating this exact same project. I’m curious about how the edge tufting is formed - when you pass the needle through for the side/edge tufting - are you passing through the foam and some of the foam is creating the volume in the edge tuft?

[@AvantiMorocha1]

Hi, thank you, I understand you. I did procrastinate for a long time before I finally decided to make it. When making the edges, I didn't take the foam, but I took the batting for the volume.

[@liamsawesomechannel1210]

Se ve hermoso. Lastima que no se usar la máquina de coser.

[@beckyherron8679]

Wow the cushion looks amazing! I am thinking of making one of these myself and just looking at fabrics, how has the drop cloth held up for you so far? x

[@AvantiMorocha1]

It's holding well, but I have to say my bedroom bench doesn't have that much traffic.

[@catrayn7]

Thank you I love this! I am getting ready to start and am following your instructions. I am not a master seamstress... I see the 1" seam allowance, did you make the seams all 1" or did you do 1/2" inch and leave extra room to make all the tufts? Muchas Gracias!

[@AvantiMorocha1]

Hi, I'm not a master seamstress either, but if I made it, I'm confident you'll also make it. I left a 1" seam allowance all over. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4rLZZR-hdKZiM0
