Have you ever made a slipcover?

[@AnnLeiSoCal]

Yes, I have but for a lounge chair. However, I have a small 4 wheel drive RV that I need to make a slipcover for and it is a jack knife type RV sofa. So this is a good place to start. You gave me many helpful tips.

[@Mengjoanne]

I did. Really a fitted sheet. Just like you did with the cushions add elastic to the bottom.

[@lindavelder4573]

Thank you. I need to do the same for my travel trailer. I like you quick concise video!

Looks great! Collecting ideas for ours.

[@kelsey5775]

How did you do the bottom? It looks different in the before and after. Also, the tutorial is a good one and I can't wait to try it out!

[@mikecotterill3866]

Thank you so much for this video, so easy to do and mine turned out great.

How many yards did you use? Also how do you know approx how big the hardware was in the back to cut that shape out? Thank you

I'm so jealous! I can't sew a button on.. No joke! It falls off every time I try. Lol 😂 I can cook, clean, and decorate our home but I can not Sew anything. Looks good 😊 TFS!

[@thediymommy]

Brenda Tate Thank you!! We'll, I'm terrible at cleaning so we're even. 😁❤️

[@Mengjoanne]

I made a fitted sheet like a baby crib one. I saw one where a woman used piping. There is a Pinterest tutorial.

[@aliciaunaryan4751]

Alicia Una Ryan thank you! My mom taught me when I was little. 😊

[@dianam929]

how many yards of fabric did you purchase for this cover? I want to cover our jack knife sofa this same way, but have no idea how much fabric I need.

[@thediymommy]

It really depends on your sofa size and fabric width, but I used about 6 yards for this one.

[@reflectedthoughts2050]

@@thediymommy 6 yards total for top and bottom?

[@angelafernandezalmodovar3734]
