How much fabric to cover the seats and curtains?

[valbarley]

Has anyone made covers for their seats?

Looking at a 3/4 bed, cushion over the engine and buddy seat

Also how much fabric is used making a full set of curtains?

(Yes I could go and measure I suppose )

I used about 12m for the curtains Val. Drop was about 50cm so I doubled it over which negated having a lining and meant I had the print inside and out.

Can't help with the covers as mine were full width, from memory about 6m I think? :?

Thanks!

Was thinking about 6m for the seats

Never thought about doubling the curtains, will see what I can find and if its cheap enough might do the 12m as well

Hi,

Just recovered my westie bed, engine pad and buddy seat last weekend (got my gaffer to do the sewing and cutting!) and it we used just over 6 meters (1.2 m wide). Not impressed with her estimating skills as she got me to buy 12 meters worth!!! :lol:

Hope that helps.
