First you need to prepare the sofa for tensioning the cover. First move it off the wall if it is located along it, since you must have access to all sides of such upholstered furniture. Then you need to expand the eurocover on the floor in the entire length of the sofa, you need to try to take into account its shape and angles.

Then you need to read the instructions. Most often, manufacturers themselves advise not to wear the cover from the side, but from above, gradually tightening it down, but you can start from any side. The main thing - to tighten the desired part of the cover on the right side of the sofa.

Wearing a case, you need to gently straighten it, stretch it. So you will ensure maximum fit to the surface of the sofa or other upholstered furniture. The eurocover independently will get the form of such subject of an interior. Usually on the sides, as well as on the bottom and on top, the cover is fixed with the help of elastic bands, but the middle part of the sofa often remains stretched.

To fix this, you need to use the pads, which are inserted in the gaps between the back and the seat, as well as between the sides and the seat. Such gaskets usually come with a eurocover, so they are perfect for its specific size. It is necessary to wear the eurocover on upholstered furniture very carefully, without haste. In this case, you will have an even and properly stretched eurochip that will sit perfectly on any upholstered furniture in the house.

To correctly sew a suitable eurocover on the sofa, you must follow the step by step instructions. The sewing process itself is easy, but the main thing in it is the correct determination of the necessary amount of fabric, as well as the creation of a suitable pattern. When sewing a eurocover at home, you must take into account what type of sofa you have. The easiest is to sew an eurocover for a model without armrests. You can sew a cover on a sofa accordion:

• First you need to decide on the size of the seating part of the sofa., for which it is necessary to measure its length and width. And you need to add about 10 cm from all sides. If there is no suitable size piece of fabric, you need to purchase a few small ones and then carefully sew them together. And you need to calculate that the seams fall on the bends of the sofa.
• When you get a whole piece of future eurocover, you will need to fold it in half (in width). Then you need to retreat a little from the corner (about a centimeter) and cut the squares on both sides. So you get cut inside corners on the edges of the future eurocover (on each side).
• After that, you need to sew between those placeswhere you cut the squares, while it is better to retreat 5 mm or 1 cm. Then you need to go to sewing gum. It is best to give preference to a wide elastic band, and it is necessary to sew it, going about 10 cm on each side - along the length.

If you have a sofa with armrests, you need to close the eurocover and them. To do this, you need to sew a large one-piece cover that will fit all surfaces of the sofa, including the seat, backrests and armrests. He can even close the legs of the sofa, and it will not need to be removed when unfolding. To determine how much fabric you need on such a cover, you need to measure all sides of the sofa and increase the length and width indicators by 2. And it’s better to measure with a flexible centimeter, since you can find out the exact length of the cover by going to the upper fold of the back and all other surfaces. .

If you want to hide the legs or wheels of the sofa, measure the length to the floor.If you want a shortened version of eurocover, then you need to measure to the edge of the seat. All measurements in the end should be formed in six different indicators that combine the dimensions of the six planes of the sofa.

If you use colored fabric for a eurocover, be sure to consider the direction of the pattern and its joining at the seams. If you are making a eurocover at home for the first time, it is better to start with monochrome fabrics, since in this way you can significantly simplify your task. The hardest thing is to sew the eurocover out of striped fabric, since the strip is the most expensive option. It can only be used for sewing in one direction.

So, all six rectangles will have certain indicators. Both the length and width should be increased by about 7 cm, which will subsequently go to the seams. The easiest way to do this is to make a pattern from a special sewing paper, pin them to the fabric and cut the necessary pieces. Do not rush to cut, it is better to chop or pin the patterns to the fabric, so as not to make a mistake and spoil the material. Then all the components of the sofa must be carefully connected with a basting stitch, which must be laid before it with pins, and then with threads.

Removing pins, you need to attach the cover to the sofa and check how it fits.After that, you need to flash all the seams on the machine - on the outlined contours. Moreover, the machine seam should be removed from the initial trial approximately 2 cm. After that, it is necessary to unscrew the cover from the inside out on the front side and put it on the sofa. This cover is still not quite perfect, it needs to be adjusted to the specific curves and parameters of the sofa.

It is better to use a piece of soap or chalk. Then again remove the cover from the sofa and sew in the right places on the sewing machine. Having made all the seams, try to remove the excess fabric as much as possible, while treating the edges so that it does not disband. After that, the eurocover, made by yourself at home, will be ready. You can wear it on the sofa and enjoy the product, custom-made.

When choosing a case, it is important to correctly measure the furniture on which you are going to wear such a coating. Although for this it is enough just to know the number of seats for which the sofa is designed, but you can still miss a little with the length and width of the eurocover.As a result, he may not sit down on the upholstered furniture and become too tense (or too loose).

Having decided on the size, you need to decide what material you need. If you want a beautiful and high-quality eurocover, give preference to the microfiber option, since such a coating looks very luxurious. A simpler option is the pleated, so these covers are cheaper, but they perfectly protect the upholstery of furniture from the sharp claws of pets.

If you are afraid of overshooting, it is better to choose a eurocover on an elastic band, since it fits more tightly and will sit perfectly on any furniture. There are also covers on the strings, but they are less convenient, because the strings are able to untie. They do not contribute to the tight fit of the furniture, so the cover with an elastic band is the best option.

If you have an angular sofa, and you want to buy an eurocover for it, when making a purchase, pay attention to that, for a right-side or left-sided corner model, a specific cover is designed. They differ depending on which side the corner of the sofa is from.
