Have you ever gone to an event where you have to sit on bleacher seats or those white plastic lawn chairs? By the time your done your either stuck to the seat or your bum is numb. I recently went through the plastic seat situation & thought UGH there has to be a better way so I gave it some thought & came up with a cushion-to-go I started with a foam cushion & added plastic to one side which faces the seat or bench (this way if there is dirt or stickygoo I can wipe it off) & added a handle for easy carrying & a sports theme fabric since most of the time it will be summer when I use this or graduation ceremonies. It works perfectly & I should have thought of it sooner

Wow - what a great idea - and you even can embroider the name
of the future "owner" on it. Thanks for sharing - this is supercute

I am short so I need a cushion in my car. So when I go to an event where the seats might be uncomfortable I take my car cushion along in with me. But my car cushion is not as colorful as this one. Good job.

Years ago. I think they used to call these stadium seat cushions. My parents always carried them to the University of Tennessee games. Later on they came out with the folding models that gave back support. Nice job. Kay

This is a great idea - now all you have to do is to remember to take it with you everywhere you go. I kick myself every time I go grocery shopping when I've forgotten to take my shopping bags out of the boot of the car. I often don't think I'll be buying much and of course always end up at the checkout having more plastic bags to bring home!

Well done Loralye, I'm always impressed with the projects you come up with. Love Chris

this is so true Chris & I do hope that I remember to take it with me. As for the shopping bags that's why you need the fold up ones that go in your purse then you always have one with you.

Make one for each car and leave it there? I carry my cooler around empty, because we buy groceries far from home and often on the spur of the moment. Great job on your cushion and I'm thinking lots of Cuties will soon have a similar one!

Lovely fabric!
I made one years ago and added two strips of fabric that close with velcro around the bench so it stays in place. Used it when singing in a choir - doing the Messiah - they had built temporary benches in an old church and my cushion fell down some 8 yards or so during the rehearsal.
