Can someone suggest an online source for the different foams used in M. Fortune’s Slip Seat FWW#163. My local fabric store does not offer the range of foams required to build the seats as shown by Mr. Fortune.
Thanks

You might check if you have a mattress shop in your area. We have one that sells all thicknesses and densities of foam. Or check a boat shop.

David,
If you do a general search for upholstery foam ,I think that may help, or check out this site,

Also I have found it helpful to wrap the foam with cotton batting then muslin in order to give the seat a nice crown. It also helps to aid in smoothing out the upholstery and keeps the seat from looking like an upholstered piece of foam.
