Simple Cushion in 4 easy steps

Here is a cushion I made. It's unbelievably easy to make and it looks really effective as well.

You need:
2 pieces of material (whatever size and colour you want your cushion to be)
Wool/thread (the length depends on the size of your cushion but to be on the safe side I would double the perimeter of your cushion)
Whatever design you want on the front
Stuffing

1. Create your dosing to go on the front. Here I have gone for simple and just put on 2 pieces of material. Whatever you want to do, assemble this. Now sew it to one of the pieces of material.

2. Get the 2 pieces of material and line them up evenly. Make sure your one with the design on is facing the front. Then sew around 3 sides and 1/2 of the 4th side. I would recommend using wool for the sewing as it looks better, but if you want the sewing hidden then don't use wool.

3. Stuff the cushion until it is plump enough for you.

4. Sew up the last side of the cushion completely and finish the thread/wool with a knot. Push this knot inside the cushion.

Hope you like it!
