Finished Project

Thank you for viewing my photo journal about making couch cushions on our futon frame. It was an enjoyable experience and I am very proud.  I think marking and cutting pieces took about the same time as sewing. All in all it was a 10 hour project.
We have a comfortable couch that people want to sit on and it looks great in the space. A durable and machine washable fabric. Also the cushions double as gymnastic mats for the kiddos.

As Always,
