These vintage linen tea-towels had already been through the wash a few times when I found them at a thrift store. I liked their worn texture. They weren't smooth, but they were soft, and the colours were still bright.
They seemed like the perfect thing to use as home decor, so I pieced them together to make a cushion cover for my friend Leanne. Like me, Leanne loves interesting prints and old stuff from thrift stores. Making a cushion cover is pretty easy as far as sewing goes--all you have to do is measure accurately and sew straight lines. I followed the directions from my usual sewing manual, Sew Everything Workshop by Diana Rupp.
Her cat Pepper took to the cushion right away!
