Maybe you could get an other quote to compare. I have made 3 large cushions and 2 small with a fabric of 45aed/yard for 280Dhs, the shop next door was asking 490Dhs for the same...
Judging by the prices for sofa cushions here, I think the price seems accurate.

I recommend a man called Basel, (055 9201873). He was originally recommended to me through this forum, (do a search). He comes to your house with lots of sample books and you can choose the fabric i thought his prices were very competitive and his work was of a high standard. I have also used Azores in Satwa. Their work is also of a high standard, though I think there price have incresased a lot in recent years. And you have to keep on top of them to complete and of course you have to go to Satwa.

I used a company, but can't remember the company's name, although the man who came was called Kumar - measured up and quoted, used high quality foam (much better than the original!) and high quality fabric, delivered and fitted within 3-4 days. Having previously taken templates and cushions down to Satwa, negotiated the parking etc, and then the shop getting it wrong, twice, I was very pleased and the cost seemed very reasonable to me. Let me know if you want the number.

I got some made at Azores in Satwa with some lovely fade resistant outdoor fabric. I love them! FFx Were they expensive and where in Satwa is Azores ?thanks! I got them done with some other covers and also got a foam insert for my bench, so I don't know exactly how much I paid for the cushions, but I was happy with the price. Azores is on "Plant Street", which during this exercise I found out is not actually called plant street, but if you go down Al Wasl, heading away from New Dubai then it is the street immediately on the right after the Iranian hospital. It is about half way up that street. I'm sure someone else may have much better directions! FFx I know plant street so will have a look. Thank you so much!

I am going to ask in some of the other shops The cushions are just standard chair size ones if that makes sense Thank you

Really depends on the size of the cushion and fabric.. Guess you will need to share details of fabric chosen and size. But an average of 110 per question is about right IMHO
