I cut out travel labels and glued them on (should have left well enough alone) -- I decided to try using a decoupage product (after the fact) -- nearly ruined it entirely. (live and learn :) )
I got my mom to help me and we made a cushion... (of sorts). I used a paper template to get the size right.
This is what it looked like completed:
It has batting inside it (and it is quite puffy). It has a single piece of batting. The outside corners are stitched and then I sewed (by machine) the interior rectangle. This was actually harder to do than I initially thought it would be (always the case -- almost never do I say "Oh that was easier than I thought it would be").
So then I did the final fitting and it fit (I breathed a sigh of relief). I made a template traced it onto the fabric. Allowed for seams. Used the tracing as the stitch lines.
I was so happy. I showed it to my husband. He said "looks like a coffin"......... (thanks!).
