• Step 1

  Start by measuring two squares of fabric, mine were 16" x 16" with a 1" seam allowence

• Step 2

  Make a stencil.
  My favourite way to do this is to trace the outline of the design you want onto paper, then cut it out with a craft knife.
  
  Use double sided sticky tape to stick your stencil to the front side of your cushion cover.

  Use acrylic paint to fill in your stencil. I find using a sponge with a dabbing motion creates much more precise lines towards the edges of the stencil than a paintbrush does.

• Step 3

  Let the paint dry, then iron it to set the paint.

• Step 4

  Position your trim into place on one of your cushion pieces, with the bobbles facing inwards and sew it into place along 3 of the edges.

  Place the other cushion piece on top of this, and sew along the same lines, to sandwich the trim in the seams

• Step 5

  Fold over your remaining free edge and iron down.

  Pin a final piece of trim along this edge and sew it into place

• Step 6

  Stitch your zip into this opening, and you're done :)
