OK, 'nudder dum question

Postby edw » November 2nd, 2020, 6:51 pm

Does anyone know anyone who can/will make custom quilted mattress covers? I need two made for my fwd mattresses in my '83 3607. The mattresses themselves are in great shape, but are vinyl and wouldn't make great sleeping surfaces. It looks like the former owner shot a lot of vinyls and used their hides to recover these mattresses (and the triangle plug) as well as all of the cushions in the settee cubicle. Also, what do you use for sheets and blankets in the v-berth?

Boy, I'm getting smart listening to you guys! :usa:

If you have any auto upholstery vendors in your area, they can easily do it. I just use common sheets and blankets in the berth. 8-) er

Just about anybody who can run a sewing machine could make one for you. Any local places that do clothing alterations would probably take it on. Just buy a regular queen size one from a store, make a pattern of the top of you mattress with some heavy paper and take both to some local shop that sews. They could probably knock it out in less than an hour.
