Breakfast nook cushions. My son made storage benches in his breakfast nook and he and his wife asked me to help with the cushions. We went to the fabric store together and picked fabric. I made the seat cushions with piping and zippers and they made the pillows. It was their first time using my serger and making buttonholes. It warmed my heart to share my passion with them.

These look great! I can never get my piping just right on the first stitching. I have to go over it a second time to get it nice and finished looking. Yours looks so professional!

Thank you. I'm a bit of a perfectionist. I did baste the piping onto the base fabric before sewing the edges together.

Well done. They did a good job on the cushions. The seating part looks so professional.

Lovely work and fabrics

I like how tight the covers look and how sharp the edges of the cushions are, great work since I have done this type of work I can tell your workmanship look very good.
