How To Make Outdoor Deep Seat Cushions

Outdoor deep seat cushions can make your patio or deck more comfortable and inviting. They’re also surprisingly easy to make. With a few basic materials and a little bit of time, you can create custom cushions that will perfectly match your outdoor décor.

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to make outdoor deep seat cushions:

Materials:

Outdoor fabric
Foam
Zipper
Thread
Sewing machine

Instructions:

1. Measure the seat of your outdoor furniture. Add 2 inches to the length and width to allow for seams. This will be the size of your fabric.

2. Cut two pieces of fabric to the size you measured in step 1. Place the two pieces of fabric right sides together and sew around the edges, leaving a 6-inch opening for the zipper.

3. Insert the zipper into the opening and sew it into place using a zipper foot on your sewing machine. Be sure to sew the zipper close to the edge of the fabric.

4. Cut the foam to the size of the fabric. Place the foam inside the fabric cover.

5. Trim any excess fabric around the edges. Turn the cushion cover right side out.

6. Insert a pillow form into the cushion cover and zip it closed. Your outdoor deep seat cushion is now complete.

That’s all there is to it! With a little bit of effort, you can create beautiful and comfortable custom outdoor deep seat cushions.
