with the muslin and the 1/2" seams. I would also attach a strip of fusible interfacing to the fabric side where it will be stapled to the underside of the table. This will give it a protection from ripping at the staples.

I would back it with muslin. When doing upholstery, you would put the foam on the frame, then cover it with canvas or muslin & tack down. This fabric takes most of the stress of holding the foam in place. The fashion fabric goes on top, which again is often first lined first. Look on you tube for ideas.
Your idea of half inch seams is also a good idea. |

I recently came across a website that had the chair and ottoman below and would love to do something similar some day. Wonder if it would help to use a heavy fusible stabilizer instead of muslin? I wouldn't want to use muslin since I would not want it be quilted... Hope you post pictures when she has it finished.
