I bought off craigslist a Juki industrial sewing machine a couple of years ago to make crab bait bags and a couple misc stuff for the boat.
Fast forward to a week ago when I made new cushions for my van's sofa bed. Bought 5" form cushions from Walmart of all places and the fabric at a local shop. I used the existing cushions as the patterns and watched youtube for pointers on sewing the corners. Turned out nice and all for less than $150.

If it's just the foam and the covers are good you can order foam from here. Good stuff.

As much as we pay for our RVs you'd think they would use much higher quality furnishings. Our dinette and theater seats lasted 4 years before the fabric started disintegrating.

so, for other readers...
the foam or the fabric or both?
Foam is at fabric stores or craft stores. be sure to get a more dense foam as the cheap soft foam is just too soft to sit on, but is fine for sleeping on.

Most cities have shops that can either re-cover your existing cushions or craft new based on the old. Upholstery shops or re-upholstery shops.
