HI all,
I'm making a piped box cushion for a window seat just now. Definitely NOT my favourite job! I haven't made one yet that I've been 100% happy with. Fortunately they don't enter my little world too often!!
One thing I wondered was how to get the size right - in the past I've measured the cushion and made the cover to fit that exactly but it sometimes looks slightly baggy and I have to alter it. With scatter cushions I always make them 3-5cm smaller than the cushion so make them look plump. Is it better to make a box cushion cover very slightly smaller than the actual cushion?
Thank you!
Sue
