New seat cushions required, any recommendations?

Hey guys.

I'm just in the process of rebuilding my bus inside & will need some new cushions making for the seat/bed.
The old rock & roll bed just wasn't wide enough for us so has had to get taken out. (Up for sale)
Are there any good retailers out there for making up custom sized cushion?
I don't need anything to flash, just need to be presentable & comfortable. I may need one corner to be slightly rounded off.

Thanks

Foam is easy enough to cut squarely with an electric carving knife and often it works out a better deal to buy foam mattresses and cut them to fit.

Or check out breasley foam at wirksworth, not far from you, they will cut to your sizes. Cheers john.

Thanks guys. I'll give the wirksworth place a bell, that'd be handy.

What about covers? Still unsure on tackling it myself.

I'm getting new cushion foam, covers, and front seats recovered at Regal Furnishings in January, so will keep you posted.

I know it's rude, but do you mind telling me what they've quoted?
