As the description explains: “Stitch a 21″ x 11″ x 14″ blue couch, a 10 1/2″ x 16″ diameter pink chair and an 18 1/2″ x 12″ x 12” green sofa, using worsted-weight yarn, foam and fibre fill. 

“The blue and pink items have decorative pillows, and the green one has an accent afghan. 

“The blue couch requires a 21″ x 78″ piece of 1″ foam; the green sofa requires a 20″ x 90″ piece of 1″ foam, and the pink chair requires a 27″ x 55″ piece of 1″ foam.”
