        that is easy to do with the native follow me tool. Please describe a little more what exactly you are trying to do...

            Make a circle on the ground plane to use as a pathfor follow me, and a vertical circle to use as a profilefor the button:

            Draw a horizontal line just under the center of profilecircle, and erase the bottom arc. Scale the profileshape along the blue axis to get the cross section of a button.

            Select the path, then click on the profilewith the follow me tool, like so:

            If you need a plugin for making the cushion, that's probably the Subdivide and Smooth (or Artisan) plugin...search the "Tutorials" forum for "sofa"...
