So you've got your new project on the go.
A brand new camper van, or a new-to-you van which you're refurbishing or an old reliable you've had for years which is ready for some TLC. You've sorted the hardwear, it's running nicely and you're starting to get the inside looking liveable. Now to get to finish it off as a home away from home (or just a home, living that nomad life dream!). You'll want a good, reliably comfortable mattress and seating area (or one that converts into the other) as well as blinds or curtains to keep the light out, insulate and add privacy. That's where we can step in and help with the process!

For your sleeping and seating areas we can offer a variety of options. We have firm or medium upholstery grade foam, depending on the use you'd like to get out of the final cushions and your mattress density preferences, which can go as thick as 15cm. As well as foam with a top layer of memory foam for an extra cosy sleep on the road. Fabric wise, we can offer anything from heavy duty mixed fibre fabrics with stain resistance, to a more breathable recycled cotton (See the new Oxford fabric on our fabrics page) See our Fabrics page for our full range. Continuing on the eco friendly theme, we also can offer latex foam inserts for your cushions as well as sheep wool for a really snuggly cushion. |
| For your curtains and blinds we have a huge offering of patterned and plain fabrics, and can line them with either a plain cotton if you'd like a little more light coming through them, or our black out lining. This is a high-tech 100% blackout fabric which boasts anti-UV protection, both thermal and sound insulation and is made up with specially woven black yarn to give the black out effect, instead of the sometimes smelly foam backing you get on other black out fabrics. We also have the option of interlining the blinds for a thicker finish. We can help guide you through the process of picking which finishes will work best for you. Whether it's a van for your own use, or a camper you're doing up to hire out. Don't just take our word for it though, here are some examples of projects we've assisted with so far.... |

After spending several months designing the “skeleton” of our first campervan build, researching the pros and cons of different layouts, trying different styles and seating ideas, we finally had the base model built!
Once the basics of the build were done, we were excited to get our teeth into the finishing touches! We chose to build the bed into the back of the van by using seating which converted into a side-on bed. One of the big decisions was the colour of the seating, we wanted this to brighten the inside of the van whilst remaining relatively neutral as our new venture was to build campervans for resale to the public.
We found Sew Versatile (Becky) on Etsy and she was so helpful from minute one! She helped us to find the perfect colour after sending her our ideas based on the logo we had created for our new brand. We decided to match the seating colour to our logo and Becky helped to ensure we had a perfect match. The finished project is exactly what we hoped for. We’ll definitely be using her for our future builds!
Really well made, super comfy and fantastic service from Becky. I was very pleased with our purchase and have recommended to our other VW owners !
Absolutely wonderful seller to work with, she made our campervan products beautifully. Great communication and top quality sewing, we are delighted.
