How Do You Recover Round Seat Cushions?
You can easily sew new covers for round seat cushions using upholstery or home decor fabric, or even a simple but sturdy fabric such as calico or denim. To make the cushion covers the right size and shape, you can measure the cushion to figure the diameter, or simply place the cushion on a large piece of paper and draw around it to make a pattern. This technique works best for round cushions that are no more than two inches thick such as cushions for stools or dining chairs. Place the cushion on a large piece of paper. Draw a circle that’s larger than the cushion all the way around, so that the circles will be large enough to cover the cushion with 1/4-inch seam allowance. Cut around the circle to make a pattern. Make a second circle pattern the same size. Cut this circle pattern in half. Cut two strips of paper, each 2 1/2 inches wide and as long as the straight edge of the half-circle patterns. Tape the strips to the straight edges of the half-circle patterns, overlapping them 1/4 in
