Project Day: Spring Frilly

La ee dah. Just because it's spring. I decided to cut up a vintage tea towel (eekk) and make this gorgeous cushion cover. So simple peoples. No zips or buttons (you know me). It's called a pillow cushion cover. The insert just slips in the back. This is what you do:

• Firstly decide what size pillow you want ( I used a 45cm square insert)
• Cut the main/front piece of fabric 2.5cm bigger than the pillow form ( so 55cm square)
  
• Cut the 2nd/back piece of fabric ( I choose black polka dot fabric ) 15cm longer than the first.
  
• Cut this long piece in half
• Press edges on these pieces and hem
• Measure your trim (optional) to cover the entire outside of the cover.
• Attach trim with a long stitch to hold in place
• Place all the pretty bits ( right sides of fabric together) together and sew.
  

Guess what, you can grab some of this 100% cotton frilly trim for only $2.25/m. While stocks last. We have 4 colours. Just click on picture below and email with your codes and quantities and an invoice will be sent to you.

Have a wonderful weekend.
