Don't throw away old fabric bags and t.shirts! they can be re-purposed into amazing and unusual cushion covers. You can be guaranteed that no-one else will have any quite the same!
A "Cath Kidston" designer velvet bag, which had seen better days, and a couple of T.Shirts which were too small, were transformed into funky cushion covers. I did all these 3 - all hand stitched! - whilst babysitting my grandson today!
Designer bag had handle removed & washed. Top opening has been oversewn as I could not be bothered to add a zip.
Pockets on the bag can hold specs cases, remote controls etc - what a good idea!
Oversewn top opening - not perfect but neat!
This was a regular T. Shirt cut off under the armpits & stiched up at the top as before.
Again this was a regular T. Shirt but a youth's size. Again cut off just under the arm pits & top opening stitched up. My friend wants this one so I may have to let it go!
