Question
beccalovely
Hi all,
I'm making my first cushion cover from crochet. I've made lots before from fabric with my sewing machine, but this is my first attempt at crocheting one.
The cushion pad I have is 12"x12", but it is very over-stuffed and bulky. I will make a cotton fabric cover for it so that the gaps from the crochet cover don't show directly through to the cushion pad itself.
I've made the front panel out of a popcorn pattern square (see photo). You can't really tell from the picture that they're popcorns though. I've then done a round of double crochet around the edge, and it currently measures 12"x12", and I will block it tomorrow.
If I do another square as the back of the cushion cover, these are my questions...
1) Should the panels measure more than 12"x12" to allow for the bulk of the cushion pad?
2) How should I join them together so that the seams aren't too obvious?
Thanks in advance for any help!
