Re: [A/S] where to buy new cushions



it seems that many RV shops will suggest a reupholstery shop saying they 
specialize in RV.......beware their prices are usually twice what any 
good reupholstery shop will charge.   My 64 has had new foam in the 
couch I think 3 times and new fabric I think 5/6 times because when I 
change the color of the carpeting
redo the couch too.....I ask my friends where they have work done for their homes
and then check those out 1st.......I have had prices quoted from $175 to over 600
and I sure don't pick the most expensive fabric tho I do pick a very good foam.
Same with drapes...mine have never had the bottom tabs and here I found a lady who
makes drapes for several
Drapery firms (who do not make any themselves just sell the material and hire the
job out)
I provided the material and she made all new drapes for $150.     If you are
thinking of new mattresses too try a local mattress mfg they seem to be in every
town.    Pearl
