I like to change things up to often to deal with zippers even although I do put them into more permanent projects. If flipping the cushion over is not a problem, just make it with an envelope closing on the back like they use on pillow shams. Depending on the thickness of your memory foam, you could make a gusset around the middle and open on the back.

Thanks the cushions are about 4' X 14", I have a memory foam mattress topper, I could cut to fit then put cover's onn them. I was thinking Velcro closure.Not sure what a gusset?

You could always make a large open-ended tube, slip the memory foam in and use coordinating ribbon to tie the ends shut,

I love the idea of reusing a memory foam topper! Large foam pieces for cushions can be expensive! What a great idea!
