#needleworkmonday :: Cushion cover with hidden envelope using leftover fabric

On the other side of the owls fabric, I just did a quick hem by folding it in once because it already has a nice selvage edge:

Once that was done, I then sewed the two fabrics, right sides together, to join them:





Then, I pressed the edges of the joined fabrics flat to give it a nicer finish in the front:



The next step, I laid and folded the joined fabric to envision how the cushion cover would look like:



Then, I turned the fabric to the wrong side and started folding, making sure that the owls fabric is at the center:



I measured both sides to check that they were almost equal lengths, which meant that the owls fabric would be at the center:



Once I was happy with the position of the owls fabric at the center, I pinned the sides and started sewing them together:



I reinforced the stitches where the fabric meets at the envelope insert because usually the stitches around there would be easily torn if too much force is used to insert the cushion:



When the sides had all been sewn, I snipped off a bit of each corner to give the cushion cover a sharper corner after it has been turned inside out:



Then, it was time to turn.
I pressed the corners out nicely and laid it flat on the floor to take a good look:



And time to stuff in the cushion:



Voila!



Front or back? Back or front? :D
