1
Lift up the cushion as far as you can to expose the stitching that secures the cushion to the top of the fabric for the main portion of the sofa.
-
2
Cut a thread used to stitch the cushion to the couch. Fingernail clippers work well for this because you can use the edge of the cutter to cut the thread.

3
Pull the thread out with a pair of tweezers until you remove enough of the thread that you can pull it with your fingers. Continue to do this as you work your way around the cushion.
