This pattern is currently only available as a downloadable PDF – which will allow you to print a copy immediately so you don’t have to wait to get started!
Cushion is designed to finish to a size for a 20″ cushion form. These are also available on our website.
You will need backing fabric, 1m should suffice for the front panel and the two back pieces. The fabric used in the pattern booklet and the youtube video is Textured Blender in White. I used 2oz wadding, and you’ll only need a 21×21″ piece of that.
If you want to try free-motion quilting the background and don’t have a machine foot for that, we also sell those.
