Adding a new cushion or cover to a chair, barstool or bench can be a great way to add a pop of color to your décor. In this class you will learn how to make custom cushions and covers for all three.

First Ashley Hough will talk about some of the different kinds of fabrics, foam and trim that can be used. The type of fabric and foam you choose to use can differ depending on where you plan to use your cushion or cover- whether indoors or outdoors.

Next you will learn how to measure your own stools, chairs and benches to create pattern pieces and templates to make cushions and covers that fit your specific furniture. Ashley will also show how to make your own piping, so you can have trim that perfectly coordinates with your fabric.

Finally, Ashley will show how to add decorative techniques like tufting to your cushions or covers, which can give your final product a designer look and a more professional finish.
