Soft Furnishings

Make the corners pointy

If you want clean sharp points on your cushion covers, you'll need to cut away the excess material from the corners. While your cover is still inside out, take your scissors and use two snips to cut a triangle-shaped piece of fabric from each corner. Turn the cushion inside out and you should have a perfectly-formed envelope cushion cover.

Add details

Finally, add any haberdashery accessories of your choice. Tassles look great stitched onto each corner. You can also add interesting items such as bridal hair details by snipping a small hole in your cover, slipping the accessory through and sewing it together at the back.

Tip: If you don't want to sew your accessories on to your cushion, use fabric glue.
