i have one sofa and 2 love seats,they have been in the family for a long time ,and with money problems and debt , i thought i can do it yourself fix . the sofa is missing a leg in which i can get a new one from any store ,but wanted to know is there an easy way to fix like example the hands of the sofa have lost the cushion under it and some of the sofa seat things have rips in the fabric ,i tried sewing them but they still re-rip ,for i have toddlers at home ,has anyone done anything of the kind and is it more expensive then sending it somewhere or just buying a new one , the wood seems fine and in good shape ,it is just the cushion part and outer cover ,i thought of getting the slip covers but with the kids it wont stay in place at all so i want to fix the cushion and replace the cover
Your not going to like my answer but you are using the wrong thread to repair the sofa the thread you need is almost the size of fishing line as for slip covers if you place some foam rubber under the cover it will stay in place . Good luck with your project.
Sorry, the sofas are way past their use. It is better to replace the sofas. The time and effort to repair the sofas are probably more costly than replacing the sofas.
