cushion cover appliqué

This party take home is a real wow! We supply a cushion cover which you sew your design on, and then fill it to take home with a feather cushion pad; it’s literally ready to throw on your bed! The hard part is choosing your design and doing some careful stitching.

In our appliqué sewing party we will give you a pretty fabric shape which will be attached to your cushion cover with a heat bond and then you’ll use your sewing stitches to add felt shapes, details and stitch round the fabric shape for extra durability. We will guide you on embroidery threads, needles and stitches. Our hope is that we can inspire you a little

and you’ll love it so much you’ll be keen to discover more sewing and embroidery skills.

Before booking this party you’ll need to choose your theme from our menu so we can prep accordingly. It is a project that suits children with some basic hand-sewing experience, or who have patience and dexterity.
