Learn exactly how to sew a custom box cushion cover with piping and a zipper – no fancy machine required! This step-by-step tutorial from 2 the Sunny Side includes photos for every step and a video walkthrough to guide you through the process. You’ll discover helpful tips to get a snug, professional-looking fit without stress.
You’ll need a few basic supplies: cording, dacron batting, zipper, foam, and spray adhesive. A walking foot helps but isn’t required. Your regular sewing machine will do the trick! Start by wrapping your foam with batting and hand-stitching it in place. Then, learn to make your own piping (denim is a great fabric choice!) and insert a clean, sturdy zipper into your fabric cover. This project isn’t super quick, but the result is so worth it! It’s perfect for window seats, benches, or cozy reading nooks!
