How to Apply Polyester Batting to Cushion Foam

Learn how to apply polyester batting your new cushion foam. Compare this video to wrapping latex foam with wool batting. Two different methods for the same result: a soft, clean, professional looking finish for your sofa or chair cushion. When you stuff your batting-wrapped cushion foam into the cover, it should be a tight fit. For those who choose not to use wool batting, this material can be used to wrap natural latex foam using an ecofriendly water based glue (watered down to brush-on consistency).

    I was going to return the batting I bought because I didn't think I needed it. This definitely proved me wrong!

    Why didn’t you vacuum compress it.

    Thank you for all the tips that you've given. I knew about using the stapler to join the Dacron batting, however, the masking tape is an especially useful tip. Those fuzzy, difficult to control bends, turns will no longer be so ornery for me!

    Can you do a video that focuses on how to apply cording. for example in cushion work where you are making a box cushion I always seem to have trouble rounding the turn and keeping tight to the cording..is there a secret. I just a cording foot and learned years ago to use a small cording foot than size welt for a tight finish, but I am just not happy with the look sometimes. I realize that different fabrics will affect the process, but I sure would like to see a detailed video about turning those corners to make them beautiful and tight. Thanks for the informative videos

    Great video! Thank you so much. If I am make the cushion covers, do I measure the fabric for just the foam, so it is a snug fit with the batting, or do I make allowances for the batting?

    Would I need to add an extra half inch - an inch of fabric to my cover to accommodate the thickness of the batting?
