Geri Presents: Quick Crafts: Cool Stuff Our Readers Like to Make

Make a Quick Quilt Cushion for Your Favorite Chair

You will need:

Five Different Colors of Polar Fleece (Avalible at Cloth Stores)
Thread (Any Color)
Needle (Any Size)
Scissors
Stuffing

1. Take one color of polar fleece and fold it in half. Cut out a square the size that you want each square to be. (there should be two squares since you folded the cloth in half.

2. Then put one squares on the same piece of cloth that you folded eariler. Use it as a pattern to cut out more squares the same size. Continue this process with this same piece of polar fleece until there is no more of this color.

3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 with the other pieces of cloth until you have enough squares to cover your favorite chair.

4. Pick up one of your sets of two squares an sew three of the sides together (any stitch).

5. Stuff the side which hasn't been sewn with stuffing (remember that you will be sitting on it, so make it soft!).

6. Sew up the side of the "fat" square that you just stuffed.

7. Continue to repeat with the rest of the squares you have not used. You should end up with lots of squares.

8. Sew the stuffed squares together. You should end up with a quilt the size of the chair you want to put on. Now all you have to do is place it on the chair.
