The personal changing mat

Are you or a loved one facing a family extension? Then you can look forward to many cosy moments at the changing table.

 

There are many ways to personalise your changing table and make it extra cosy - with decorations and cushions and other personal items. And for those who like to sew, a personalised, homemade changing mat will bring great joy every day.

 

Shaped for the purpose

The pillow foam is shaped to standard dimensions to fit all babies and most changing tables. It measures 50x68 cm with a height of 9 cm at the sides and 4 cm in the middle.

 

And the pattern itself? You'll find it under "Patterns" or by searching for baby cushion (item no. 9031500). Remember to choose the right fabric that's cute, charming and easy to wash.

 

Foam that keeps its shape

This foam is OEKO-TEX® certified polyether foam, which is naturally not treated with flame retardants.

 

The foam has a high tear strength and is resistant to moisture. At the same time, it is dimensionally stable with a good recovery.

 

The foam has a density of 25, which means it is soft and comfortable. The hardness is 130 N.

 

Choose the right foam hardness

Foam is not just foam. Once you've spent hours sewing the best-looking cover for your project, you need to choose the right foam to put inside.

 

The hardness of foam is called Newton (N). The higher the Newton, the harder the foam. You can assume that a foam with 100 N or less is soft, around 140 N is medium soft and more than 160 N is hard.

 

Naturally, your creative project and ideas will determine which hardness to choose, but as a starting point we recommend:

  • 80-130 N for back cushions, bed frames and similar
  • 110-160 N for sleeping mattresses
  • 130-200 N for seat cushions for chairs, sofas and the like
