This is a beginners class for anyone with some or no experience using a sewing machine. You can choose to come along for a 1/2 Day or Full day of cushion making.  For the half day you will make a square zipped cushion cover and for a full day you will also make a rectangular envelope cushion cover. If you are a more confident student you can add piping. Included in the price are feather cushion pads.  Square 17 x 17 inch and rectangle 18 x 12 inch. You will need to bring your own fabric.  Beige or navy zips are included but you may want to bring your own to match your fabric. If you have your own sewing machine then please bring along.  I will notify you of quantity for fabric to buy when you book.
