This is my first tutorial in english. I´m sure there are a ton of technical terms that I ignore and that probably have replaced with my own inventions.
I saw the original tutorial pinned a lot and, also, a lot of comments asking whether it existed or not in english. Well, here it is.
Be nice, it´s my first try. But let me know if you find big mistakes.
enjoy!
Hi Noe!

pd: this page is bilingual!!!! WOW!!!!
pd: vamos ahi!!! ;-)
Only slightly bilingual :D
DeleteI´m glad you like it!
I LOVE that you did this for your readers. Thank you so, so much. I have wanted to make one of these cushions forever and just could not figure out how to do it!
ReplyDeleteI do have a question though. On the tufting of the sides. If I understand correctly the stitches go from the side to the top, and from the side to the bottom, right? Also, how far apart are they from each other, and also from the top and the bottom of the gusset?
I would guess that they are the same measurement from the edge of the gusset to the edge of the top and bottom of the pillow, but don't know that measurement or the measurement of the amount of space between them on the side of the gusset.
Suzy,
Deleteyou´re welcome! I´m very happy that you find it useful.
For the tufting of the sides you have to insert the needle from the top (front piece) to the side (gusset) and then, from the side (gusset) to the top (front piece). Once you finished surrounding the front piece, you turn the pillow and do the same with the back piece and the gusset.
The stitches are around 1 inch apart from each other, the length of the stitch is around 1/4 inch. And they are between 1 and 1 1/2 inches from the edge of the front, back and gusset pieces.
You guessed right, like I said it´s between 1 and 1 1/2 inches from the edges of the pillow.
Let me know if it´s clear enough :)

What I think I would do is go down to our foam store and have them cut me some pieces of sofa cushion foam and use that to give it some stiffness. That way you won't be sitting on the floor when the stuffing compresses. Just a thought. Love the idea, great for little ones and more seating!
ReplyDeleteWow That is absolutely awesome .... It's such a pretty floor cushions.
