Keep the cushion in place
The cushion shown here constantly comes out from the sofa.
I have tried using large patches of velcro on both the bottom and back, yet the problem persists. https://www.dropbox.com/s/moqpq6h803...hion.jpeg?dl=0 Any ideas? Thanks, Andy |

Thanks, Andy Maybe something like cousin ties. They can be sewn on the back and the cushion and tied. My wife made some for the outdoor Adirondack chairs. sample: http://d3d71ba2asa5oz.cloudfront.net/12024372/images/h09055-12_739__1.jpg |

When I try to drill through the material to attach an anchor, the bit breaks due to fabric wrapping around it. Andy |

Andy Some suggestions he https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/alt.home.repair/n5mf_89nGbw or http://alturl.com/dto98 you need one of these and the clips. You'll never be able to drill through the material and pad http://www.rochfordsupply.com/shop/N...dle/index.html http://www.rochfordsupply.com/shop/N...nts/index.html or you might try using some waffle pad shelf lining, it should keep it fom slipping.Your problem lies in the front edge of our sofa just below the front edge of the cushion. It should be built up about 1 1/2" taller than the deck/platform below the cushions. This is what keeps cushions from slipping out |
