This is a great beginner’s project as it requires no sewing at all as the two sides of the cover are knotted together to make decorative tassels. This is an ideal technique for making sofa or bed cushions, large floor cushions and cosy cushions for a dog bed. It’s adaptable because you use a cushion pad (pillow form) or bed pillow to fill it, or you can make the cushion cover any size you like and simply stuffit with filling.
You can use any fabric for this project, but we recommend fleece as it does not fray, unlike many other fabrics. Fleece doesn’t crease much, so there’s no need for ironing after it has been washed. (You can’t remove the inside easily for washing, but you can simply pop the whole cushion in the wash when needed.)
