Do you recognize my sofa type and brand?

3 years ago

SEE COMMENTS FOR PICTURE. My dogs unfortunately did a good job tearing the cushions, and I was hoping to find cushion replacements but I don't know what type and/or brand my sofa is. If there was a label/tag, it's gone - I searched the whole sofa. Please help and pass on to people who may be able to identify it. Thanks!

Its impossible to tell, and most likely you cant match them anymore anyway. Time to get another sofa, I am afraid. Then the problem is how to keep the dogs from doing it again.

magothyrivergirl - my machine is a Babylock Quilter's Choice Pro (BLQP). It has a 9 inch throat. I have been very happy with it. I have done over 100 quilts with it since May 2004. I only wish it had a larger throat but it has been a great quilting machine. I have not had any problems with it except when I broke the little thread guide near the tension by pulling the spool of thread off the machine. It was replaced while I waited at no charge to me. If I can help with any other questions, just let me know. Linda

what do you call this type of sofa?
Q

There's also the "crate" or "cargo" style furniture that was very common in the late 70s and 80s but has never really gone away - This End Up, Cargo, etc. The dorms at one college I attended were all furnished with This End Up because the stuff was practically bulletproof. TEU is still going (it went out of business for a while in 2000 but was revived) but I see it and its clones come up on Craigslist pretty regularly. Without more explanation it's hard to know exactly what the OP means. (Thanks for the nitpick, bronwynsmom, that's a little pet peeve of mine too since I'm a MUCH greater fan of English A&C than I am of Mission. Although the vast majority of the American manufacturers, including eventually Gustav Stickley, threw the whole "handmade" aspect out the window and built their Mission-style furniture and other decor items in factories; in the UK it remained more artisanal and thus rather expensive, while in the US A&C had more of an "everyman" approach and became quite cheap.)

This is the fabric of the upholstery:

The sofa appears to be rather vintage, and the likelihood of getting replacement cushions is less than the likelihood that I’ll be the next Pope. Even if replacements existed, they would probably cost more than a whole new couch. I think you need to resign yourself to looking for another couch. You can often find good, local deals online at sites like Craig’s List.

Do you have a plan, though, for how to prevent your dogs from turning the next couch into a giant chew toy?

You won’t match them but a good upholster could make leather covers for the cushions to coordinate with the fabric. Or you might find a similar leather sofa you could get for less and just use the cushions. Or you could buy a new sofa probably for less than new cushions.
