Slipcover Copy

Slipcover Copy for ArmchairWhat is a slipcover copy?

It’s a new slipcover I make by replicating your old one.  I take apart your cover and use it as a template.

What are the fabric choices?

I only work with washable, natural fiber fabrics and will accept:

  • Cotton denim, canvas, linen, hemp and ticking you purchase from retailers on my favorites list.
  • Cotton-poly canvas that I supply. Take a look here.
  • Fabrics you’ve sourced that meet my natural fiber fabric criteria.

No prints, checks or plaids.

How will it fit?

  • Your new slipcover will fit as well as your old one if similar weight fabric is used.
  • I can improve the fit of your new slipcover when minor adjustments are needed.

What is the workmanship like?

I create a slipcover copy with the same excellent quality I put into making custom-made slipcovers for my local clients.

  • Seams are stitched smoothly, reinforced where needed and seam allowances are serged to prevent raveling.
  • Zippers, cushion boxing and welt cord are professionally set.
  • Skirts are lined if necessary.

Types of slipcovers I can’t copy:

I cannot copy poorly fitting slipcovers due to extreme shrinkage and large tears.

I cannot copy slipcovers made from fabric that gives or stretches such as linen, matelasse, loose weaves, damask and plush fabrics.

Is a slipcover copy the right choice for you?

  • You have to be ready to let go of your old slipcover and be OK with the new slipcover fitting like your old one or slightly different with minor improvements.
  • A slipcover copy is for those of you who live outside of my area.  When I’m not able to access your furniture to do a pin fitting , a slipcover copy is the next best thing.
  • A slipcover copy is a custom made product and cannot be returned for a refund.
