French mattress tutorial box cushion.
How to make a french mattress bench cushion.
The things i learned and the things i m glad i bought.
It was in the plan back when we completed our french style bench out of a pair of broken chairs because that was inspired by a ballard designs bench that is no longer available with a similar cushion.
I m so excited to finally be able to share this tufted french mattress cushion i made because it s been 2 years in the making.
Continue doing this around the top and bottom of the mattress cushion.
First cut the upholstery foam to the desired size.
Don t just cut the extra 1 seam allowance cut and extra inch of both sides 3 total so you have lots to bunch up.
Try your best to line up the top and bottom stitches because that s what gives the cushion its mattress look.
Make the box cushion cover.
When you cut out the fabric pieces be extra generous.
I finally got around to making my own and now i have the tutorial for you as well for this project i made a new cushion for a bench trunk that lives by our front door you can see the space here with the original cushion.
