Fold the square of paper into quarters. Anchor the drawing pin in the folded corner of the paper with the string the same length as the radius of the cover plus the seam allowance. Draw an arc from edge to edge. Using the paper pattern cut out 2 pieces of fabric. Place with right sides together, pin, tack and stitch 2 thirds of the way round leaving an opening.
Fasten thread ends securely.
Insert cushion pad. Turn under edges of opening in line with the remainder of the seam and slipstitch across the opening. If required stitch braid, fringing or lace around the edges using a small backstitch . Figure 3 Click image for detailed view. Figure 4 Click image for detailed view.
