How to do it
1. Fold the tea towel which is intended for the actual cover over lengthwise. Cut the sides so the folded tea towel now measures 40 x 42cm.
2. Cut the individual pattern parts from two tea towels with different patterns, using the template.
3. Use a needle and thread to tack the fabric parts onto the tea towel intended for the cover.
4. Use a sewing machine and sew the fabric parts onto the cover with zig-zag stitches.
5. Turn the cover inside out and sew the sides together, leaving a small opening of approx. 20cm at the bottom.
6. Turn the cover inside out again and iron it (right side out).
7. Sew decorative stitches in a contrasting colour along three of the four sides of the cushion cover (not the bottom).
8. Insert a stuffed pillow inside the cushion cover.
9. Close the opening by sewing as small stitches as possible.
