I just can't help but think we could find a slipcover that I like that will work great for less than it would cost us for fabric and labor ... still debating but I know that when the baby gets here in March I will have some type of recovered couches :)

The upholstery fabric isn't cheap, but I bet you could make your own slipcovers. At the time, I couldn't find ready made slipcovers that would fit my couch.
