How to Make and Decorate a Book Holder Cushion Cover
*Basic Sewing Skills are required to create a running stitch and a zig zag stitch*
*EDIT*
Measure your cushion and add 1” seam allowance all around.
So if your cushion is 39x39 make your front piece 40x40, choose your pocket size but make sure the width is the same width as your front cover, make your pocket lining the exact same size as your pocket.
For the 2 back pieces make them the same width and at least 3/4 in length so I would do 40x35 for both pieces. You want them to overlap so they do not gape when you add your Cushion. The length will be reduced when you fold your top seam over and sew the bottom seam allowance but they will still overlap each other
