Slipcover Hack New And Improved | How to Inexpensively Cover A Sofa

[@brittneysmith7368]

Definitely doing this! Between the dogs and kid my couches are a wreck!

[@phyllismoore9125]

Looks great, I have a sofa that I want to change.

[@vickysmit3726]

That is a great idee, thank you. At present I am doing a recliner, but will use your methods in futre.

[@gloriabright7544]

Very cool! Thank you!!

[@S1eazywayz]

You were sent to me from my late grandmother who didn't get the chance to teach me her upholstery skills.. She was a great seamstress. R.I.P. Nanny.. My otger grandmother unfortunately cant teach me right now either because of the Coronavirus and social distracting :(.. Another great seamstress.

[@lindabullock6159]

Looks great! Thank you Robin! Love you and your channel. Linda

[@maureenmay7195]

Absolutely great tutorial, thankyou 👌I'm a new follower from England 💙

[@pinkblll]

Yay! Thank you! That was the exact instruction I needed and you totally eased my mind because I was a bit worried about having to cover my T cushion in the chair that I am going to recover. Wish me luck, this will be the first time making a slipcover.

Hey Robin, so I am a mom of 4 and I have been in a search of a truly waterproof couch cover. I have tried everything from amazon and all that i could find are mostly water resistant (even the ones that say waterproof). I then thought of an idea: My waterproof mattress covers work perfectly and are ( truly waterproof.) I have bought many especially for those night where kiddos have accidents. Why dont they make couch covers with this same material? Could you please make a hack to sew my own couch covers with these fitted waterproof matress covers‽ I honestly dont care about the look, black matches everything. That would be amazing and a total game changer for me 🙏

[@DarkAshes27]

oh and if they are able to slip off easily to throw in the wash would be a huuuge bonus!

[@danageibel]

This is fantastic!! Thank u so much! Hoping to get this project over the next two weeks

[@susanricher9185]

wow , I think I can DO this !!! Thank you for sharing..... suzi

[@lindabullock6159]

I sewed a complete slipcover and struggled so much. A simple pencil mark would have made all the difference! I have to laugh now! Thanks Robin.

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

I remember my first slipcover, it spent a couple months rolled up in a ball at the bottom of the closet! I was so frustrated lol. Second slipcover I started the pencil Mark's and it went much more smoothly lol

[@beckypackqualls2745]

Excellent video!! I’ve always been admiring your slipcovers! Thank you, Robin!

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

So glad you enjoyed it.

[@tennesseegrannydebbie3384]

I have an ottoman I'm going to cover....soon. Your sofa Looks pretty!!!!👵💖🦋

[@LivingtheSilverLife]

I did this exact process with my couch and chair cushions in my Airstream. The only difference is that I used grommets instead of safety pins. 👍🏼Worked so well.

[@ronirody9674]

Aww GREAT tutorial!!!!!!!!! Looks GREAT ❤❤❤ have yourself a WONDERFUL week God bless you ✌

[@rosestrange5644]

WOW, looks great . Love the fabric!

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

So do I, I think it turned out great

[@cottagecreations2656]

Beautiful! I love the ticking stripe.

[@karenn993]

I am in awe!

[@judyspencer6303]

I love it. Looks great!!

[@kimayres7749]

Your living room is lovely! That coffee table.. ❤❤❤

[@niemancm1]

Wow, i will definitely be using your video when doing my first slipcover cushions. Could you please share your link on the actual slipcover for the sofa

[@letsmakeamesstoday]

This is awesome!!! Love your tutorial videos so much. Beautiful room Robin! Xo

[@peggygilbertsen9099]

Awesome project! Thanks so much 😀

[@debjh]

Awesome job Robin! It looks so cute!!

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

Thanks so much, I think it turned out nicely

[@adelewareyko6636]

Hi, operative word SHOULD lol. Safety pins YES never out dated. Thank you. God bless you all. 🙏🏽😘

[@vickiwaller9073]

Great job! Love the ticking stripe.

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

I love the ticking strip, so classic

[@mehrit1648]

Looks great I liked thank you for sharing.

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

So glad you enjoyed the video.

[@margaretrose8105]

I love sewing with striped ticking fabric. It looks great.

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

Oh I do too, this is the first time I have used grey lol normally it is blue or red, but I love it.

[@EllensAbundantLifeonLess]

Nice! My dogs have totally trashed my sofa upholstery but the frame is still good. I'm going to give this a try! Thank you for sharing!

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

They have held up to my two fur babies very well. Hehe

[@EllensAbundantLifeonLess]

@@RobinJohnsonDecor awesome! If I just throw a blanket on the couch, they throw it off in now time. Your method is nice and tucked in! 😊👍

[@cindyreynolds4230]

Turned out great!

[@beetru6677]

Looks amazing!! I love your coffee table❤

[@alisonmary1443]

Great idea, The box corners are so simple compared the sewing chair cushion I recently done, the back of which is incomplete so I'll get the safety pins 👍🌸

[@marysalazar8132]

The original MCM couch is beautiful!!

[@nikkib89]

Thanks for these detailed instructions! I'm going to try this using a traditional roll of fabric instead of large sheets/cloth. I'll see how it goes lol

[@eleanoreagly4844]

When using a fabric that ravels, like denim, be certain to stabilize the raw edges so when laundered will not fray.

[@shaishannahbennett8055]

Wowzers Robin, your lounge looks fabulous! So pretty

[@lindasmith5190]

Beautiful!!!

[@ruthgoddard6539]

So pretty. I dont sew but boy i wish i did.you have so much talent

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

I had thought that you could probably do this same this with fabric glue. It would be fun to try it out to see if it would work

[@ruthgoddard6539]

@@RobinJohnsonDecor oh yeah i am a glue person. I like that idea

[@reniehandler2595]

That looks incredible! Will you cover the other couch as well? Really looks professional and will make life easier than always straightening out the fabric!!! #goals

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

Oh yes, I actually have move this sofa out of the living room since I filmed this video and I am taking the covers and hoping to adjust them to fit the remaining sofa

[@judymcintire8061]

Looks awesome!!! 🤗

[@heidipatterson5005]

Ur amazing girl...luv luv...thank u... going to try it...

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

Perfect that makes me so happy, have fun sewing whoohoo

[@marciahowe2887]

You did a fantastic job on this Robin. It looks like a brand new sofa. Love the fabric choice too. It will go with all your seasons. Love this.

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

I love the fabric too, and like you said I think it will work well for different season.

[@haleygrace481]

How much did it cost you to cover the whole sectional?

[@carnellnutt988]

Love this idea! Thank you.

[@laurenmartone]

Love this video.

[@lisabruce1732]

Genius! Makes me wish I had a sewing machine. ❤️

[@parisday9631]

Lisa Bruce Makes me wish I’d done better in my high school sewing class.

[@Hazel_Fox22]

Thanks, Robin, for inspiring my after the holidays project! As a fellow "everything white" freak, I will do this with some canvas/duck cloth so it can be thrown into a bleach load if it gets dirty. How heavy is the fabric you used? How is everything holding up after a few months of use?

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

The fabric I used is on the thin side. It is from Waverly and sold at Walmart. Seems to be holding up nicely, and wash up good too.

[@jenniferfleece5931]

Thank you 😊

[@carlottagladding2553]

Any suggestion how to slipcover an L shaped small sectional with 6 square seat cushions and 8 loose back cushions? I will definitely try your method for the seat cushions.

[@roychefets6961]

Do you know of a white duck like fabric that has some stretch fibers in It? It seems that such a fabric would fit well. Do you agree?

[@nancypeteja6560]

This was cool! I like this! What an awesome way to change the look of a room! TFS.😊 😉 👍 💖 🍁 🍂 🍁 🌻 🌽 🍗 🍠 🍎🍏🌻

Echt Spitze 👍🏼💛 💛

[@chrisinedison]

Great job Robin! You made that scary curve look easy 😃 Thank you!

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

The first one may go slow but after that you will be a pro. Plus the beauty of this whole project is that it doe not have to be perfect at all.

[@candacedandrea5677]

Great work- love your channel= the spot in your carpet is a distraction .

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

Oh my gosh don't get me started I have no idea where it came from but I keep scrubbing that thing and I think it is getting bigger. Any suggestions

[@kathleenmay6711]

Awesome

[@charlottehetherington8720]

Was the nine yards of fabric for the whole couch or just the cushions

[@RobinJohnsonDecor]

The whole sofa, hope that helps

Why do these people talk on and on and on without getting to a point. Do they think we don't understand plain English. I give up
