I have been looking for a rocking chair cushion for a long time, hoping to find one to fit my nursery. This one is just as pictured and though it doesn't have the ties for the bottom cushion I haven't had a problem with it at all. It stays in place and is very comfortable. I got the one in the coral color and it is beautiful. I am very into traditional designs and anything that looks a little handmade if possible and this fits the bill. I have already recommended one to my sister who is also due with a little one soon.
