I would appreciate any suggestions.... I am about to launch on a new cushion project.
These will be back cushions, not seat cushions, and will be filled with poly shred or something similar for soft, "pillowyness".
I already know to taper in at the corners. I am planning to seam3 sides and all corners, then turn and stuff and top stitch the hole. Further, I am going to put the shred stuff in a separate muslin cover so they will be easy to get off and have dry cleaned.
What do you think??
a zipper on the fourth side will make removal to clean easier. I usually sew the zipper in one side, then sew the other three. You can turn though the zipper. No hand sewing.

Right on! Commercial cushion covers have zippers even when they *can't* be cleaned -- it's so much cheaper to buy a zipper than to sew the covers closed by hand.

Pat,
They really do save you work in the long run. :) I tried to email you but it bounced back to me. Send me an email would you? mamahays *at* cox *dot* net. I'm in Springdale now and more than willing to help if you need. ;) Been meaning to email you since we got out here. *sigh* One thing and another....... 'course you might have been out on the golf course if I'd emailed you. ;) Getting chilly for early tee times now.
