HOW TO SEW A PATCHWORK BENCH CUSHION

Sewing a cushion is a great project to learn basic skills such as sewing straight seams, inserting stuffing, and sewing on buttons.

I designed to fit this cute little thrifted piano bench. It is long and skinny (12 1/2” x 34”), but I will tell you how to easily change the dimensions to fit a different sized bench too.

YOU WILL NEED:

polyester

shredded foam

quilt basting spray

fabric

To sew a cushion approximately 12 1/2” x 34” (not including the straps, cut 40 squares 4” x 4”. Sew them together in a rectangle with 4 rows of 10 patches.

As you can see, I used fusible gridded interfacing (Pellon Quilter’s Grid 820) to help me sew the patchwork together in a snap.
