RV cushion

[Jo_admin]

Hi all
I have had an enquiry regarding a cushion type that's unfamiliar to me and wondered if any of you have any tips on how this is made?

Many thanks

Message:
I am looking for some guidance on making 2 part Gaucho type RV cushion.  These are the ones that have 2 foam parts that double as a chair and back cushion while can be folded down to make a bed cushion.

I am particularly interested in the attachment method used between the two foam cushion pieces.

There is a US book called 'Pillows - step-by-step techniques' published by Sunset books which describes how to make a variation of a Shiki-buton (a Japanese folding cushion, the padded part of a futon).

This shows how to make the 'hinge' parts to allow the cushion to fold.
