Upcycled Futon Style Chair Cushion

Time to comfy up that uncomfortable wooden chair.

I was once an avid collector of Indian Cotton bedspreads. I also have a Danish Modern wooden chair that I freecycled from an alleyway back when I was in college. Until last night I'd been using some mismatched throw pillows (also freecycled) as chair cushions. A bit of inspiration hit and I decided to make good use of one of the more worn bedspreads in my collection to comfy up this old chair.

Making baffled cushions is actually a pretty simple process once you get the hang of it. It just takes a bit of planning when you're sewing everything together. If you feel really adventurous, you can make your own futon mattress even! :D
