How many yds. fabric to recover?

I recently gpt a '66 Overlander that needs new cushions. I was wondering if anyone can give me a ballpark of how much fabric I'll need to do both sofas. I was figuring about 12 yds., but I could be off...

I certainly can't tell you, but any good upholsterer should be able to tell you. Then again, if you age going to do it yourself........

That sounds about right...we ordered 13 yards to do our Gaucho & Dinette in our '64 Globetrotter and had some left over.
