yes a couch is intense. mine took me 2 days of working 4 hours a day. so 8 hours in total. the first day I ripped everything and just measured and cut fabric. then the second day I sewed and put together. and this love seat is only a 2 seater really. look at it this way, how much are you willing to put in to learn something by doing? if your project is a fail, you will learn where you went wrong. don't give up. good luck. :)

Hi. I used about a little less than 8 metres of fabric which was at 150cm width. I could have used at least 1 metre or slightly more less but because I had a pattern which I had to keep unidirectional, i ended up using most of the 8metres. I probably have like 70cm of fabric left which I could use to make a couple of more standard sized cushions. hope that helps. :)
