Easy Patchwork Cushions

These cushions remind me of spring and will brighten up an old lounge. The left and right cushions are the most basic patchwork cushions to make - joining 3 or 4 pieces of fabric together to form a square. They all have a plain bright apple green backing.

Cushion 1 (left):
1. Sew a small rectangle piece (pink) to a larger rectangle piece (green).
2. Sew the bottom edge of the 2 joined piece to another rectangle piece (floral).



Cushion 2 (right):
1. Sew a small rectangle piece (floral) to a larger rectangle piece (green floral).
2. Sew a large rectangle piece (green) to a smaller rectangle piece (pick).
3. Sew the 2 pieces together, making sure a small rectangle piece is on the top left and the other small rectangle is on the bottom right.

Cushion 3 (middle):
1. Cut 3 long pieces of fabrics and sew them lengthwise together.
2. Cut the joined piece into equal size square blocks by cutting across all 3 fabrics.
3. How you join the 4 pieces of square together is up to you and will produce different effects. The way I sewed them produced a windmill effect.
