About the workshop:
In this workshop we will be creating your own custom cushions - perfect for the garden furniture or for lounging out
During the workshop we will explore how to get the correct measurements for your box cushion cover.
If you are making a French Mattress cushion you will work with a standard size of foam which you will stitch a fabric cover for. You will then be shown how to hand stitch your edging to achieve the traditional French Mattress finish.
If you are making a piped cushion you will learn how to make and install piping alongside a zip opening. You can make a standard box cushion or have the foam cut prior to the workshop to your specification (additional cost may occur depending on the size of your foam)
