How To: Make a cushion cover

With a little practice a cushion cover can be made at home easily. The materials/equipments required are as follows: fabric of your choice (having appropriate dimensions) to make the cover, scissors, measuring tape and ruler, needles, threads, sewing machine and an iron. The first step involves measuring the cushion and cutting the fabric accordingly. Next, the two pieces so created are roughly hand-stitched and marked (using ruler and pencil) at the borders so that they can be sewn on top of each other easily. The final adjustments are then performed which include cutting off the corners, removing the rough stitches performed earlier and of course inserting the cushion in the cover itself. The fourth side is then sewn tight, completing the cover.
