Learn to sew the infamous box cushion!

Make a   4" x 20" x 20" sample size or bring your measurements to make a   cushion cover specific to your decor (note: cushions must be square or rectangular to ensure everyone is receiving the same instruction)

We will review foam and fill options in the first two sessions

If there's time you can also make a muslin insert for your cushion filling

Note: Please bring your own portable machine in good working order if you prefer to work with it, otherwise we have one for you!
