I just finished 3 boppy covers for my granddaughter, they came out nice, I just hope they fit. The only thing is that a 24 inch zipper is too long, I used a 22 and it was perfect.

Shelley, I’m so sorry to hear it didn’t work out! And that’s weird…mine was just the right size. Do you have a “Boppy” brand boppy? Is it kind of flat? I wonder if maybe one of those two things would make a difference…I’m so sorry you spent all the time on it and were disappointed. That’s the worst…

Am I the only one that this pattern was too big for their boppy? I would suggest a larger seam allowance than 1/4in. I am really disappointed. I spent a lot of time taking it up, but I am NOT taking the zipper out to fix it completely. It just looks sort of sloppy and not very tailored to fit and I used expensive fabric:( I pieced the pattern together correctly, it is just too big.

I want to use the pattern to make the pillow as well. For those of you who have done these, how much smaller did you make the pattern?? Any help would be gratefully received!!

I just used regular 8 1/2 x 11 paper. Good luck!

This may be a silly question, but when you printed the pattern did you use just regular 8 1/2 x 11 paper or does it require a larger size so that it will fit the boppy. I am going to try and make this over the weekend. It looks easy and fun! Thanks so much for the pattern!

[...] Sciences (Home Ec with a PC name)! It was supposed to be a boppy cover (the pattern can be found here) but it came out way too small for my boppy so I think I will just stuff it with fluff and make [...]

Velcro is a lovely alternative to zippers for a cover you want to remove for washing!

I desperately need to make a new boppy cover for mine. The one I have I bought and it’s totally worn out after nursing 2.1 babies on it. And, it’s really flat. Any suggestions how I could fluff it up?
