Guide to making a cushion cover with a zip<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Step 1 \u2013 Cut the fabric<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cut your printed fabric leaving extra material for the hem and allowing for the plumping up of the cushion. If you would like a 40 x 40cm cushion, cut your fabric into two 48 x 48cm squares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2 \u2013 Hemming<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pin a hem of about 1cm along one side of each of the fabric cutouts. This will be used to attach to the zip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3 \u2013 Sew the hemming<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sew the hems in place with a machine. Then fold both hems over once more and machine again to create a double hem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 4 \u2013 Sew the cushion cover zip<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Open the zip and pin to both sides of the double leaving about 3mm of fabric above the teeth of the zip. This will hide the zip when closed. Sew the zip in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 5 \u2013 Folding<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Fold the fabric pieces together so that the printed sides are touching, and the cover appears inside out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 6 \u2013 Repeat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pin the other sides of the cushion cover and sew about 3cm in from the three edges. Maintain the shape you are wanting to create.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 7 \u2013 Remove access from the cushion cover<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Trim off the excess fabric and turn it inside out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tadaaa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When making your own cushion covers you will have much more variety when it comes to fabrics to choose from compared to pre-made cushions. So, showcase your creative talents with homemade cushions and reap compliments from friends and family!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
