Today I'm going to show you how easy it is to make really beautiful boxed cushion covers for your van in 1-piece!
This video is a step-by-step tutorial for making a boxed cushion cover.
I will show you how to measure to make a perfectly fitting cushion cover with only one piece of fabric.
I'll also show you how to put in a zipper! Even if you’ve never sewn a zipper before you can do it! It’s really not that difficult.
The covers can also be easily removed for washing.
Follow every step, and you’ll soon have a beautiful covered cushion.
I made 6 for my Sprinter Van conversion, and I absolutely love them!
Here is the link to the entire video in which I show you how to also make cushions out of a 3" queen size mattress topper: • DIY Cushions and Cushi...
Be careful if you have a directional fabric. Always pre-wash your fabric.
Measure twice cut once.

Your video was so helpful! As I'm going to attempt to make my own covers in the coming weeks. Do you allow the same seam allowance on all projects or does it differ depending on size? (Sorry I'm a novice!) Thanks in advance x
@VanLifeDesigner
@VanLifeDesigner Год назад
Yes you can! I really depends on the thickness of the fabric.

Rebecca Baker, you can choose what seam allowance you like! Most drapery sewing is half inch, on drapery curtains and the like, but on slipcovers you may want to use 1 inch seam allowance (just so you have a little extra.

Am I the only one who can't work out how to do the last step? I genuinely can't work out how she gets the 1x1,5 inch cutout, I'm working in mm's and have watched the video at least 5 times now and still can't work it out, can somebody please explain the calculations for the other box corners? The first ones worked out fine but really stuck on the second ones

Before sewing anything, if you mark the center point on the long sides with a notch, the fold your zipper in half and mark both centers. Then sew your boxes, then when installing the zipper just the centers of fabric and zipper on your center notches and pin out each side, and you have an equal zip on each side.

Thanks for that, I've done various types of cushions before but this has been a game changer when it came to making the covers for a friend's camper van. I thought I was going to have to make panelled side boxed cushions with a welt zip but no, this is so simple, and so much faster. Highly recommended. As an aside to others looking at this, measuring and cutting out accurately is key, after that it's easy.

Clarifying questions: The side that the zipper goes on - that's the side that gets the L+T+S calculation correct? I'm trying to understand the underlying math and am a bit perplexed as to why one side get the thickness once, and the other side gets it twice, and I want to make sure I understand which side gets the zipper. Thank you - it's easy to follow otherwise! Very good instruction.

I am just now prototyping this design for a cushion a neighbor needs recovered (before I cut their fabric, I’m mocking this up with an old bed sheet) and I may have just found a helpful hint just in case the desired (heavy duty or light weight) zipper does not compute to the same seam allowance vs. your finished dimensions for every instance. Since the desired seam allowance is a constant 1/2”, if you fold over a half inch for the entire length of the seam including and excluding the zipper area and iron that 1/2” crease (before installing the zipper) then you can see where the seams should meet including and excluding the actual zipper install and you can then pin and sew in your zipper under those folds with essentially what would be a top stitch to create a concealed zipper …I would only do this if you are comfortable enough to know where the zipper teeth are under that folded fabric 💞

This is awesome! Such an easy way to calculate measurements! Btw, a more "mathy" way to say this would be: Side One = L + T + 2(S) = Total Length of Fabric Side Two = 2(W) + 2(T) + 2(S) = Total Width of Fabric I know you must know what I mean because not many people would have had the patience to figure it out and create an easy formula for people to follow. :) Thank you so much for this! I just tried a cushion cover on my own a couple of days ago. The nicest way to describe it is that it didn't fit. :) Now I'm going to use your formula and can't wait to see the results!

No. With a curved shape you'll need to cut 2x the curved shape + Seam allowance, then each edge plus the seam allowance. So that isn't a one-piece project.

This is ok tuturial but Ive never seen boxing the corners first. Ive done many jean totes and cusion covers. You can actually cut 2 pieces adding the extra seam allowance. I would sew zipper in first into the 2 flat pieces or if still going with this one piece idea sew in first but your sewing into a tube? Then sew sides. THEN box the corners. Having zipper also go around the edge is a stress point and the zipper could pop open at those edges?

i tried 3 times on an old piece of smaller foam and it keeps coming out 3” wider left-right and 3” shorter top-bottom. It looks pretty simple, must be operator error. I wish I could figure this out before I cut into my good fabric. 😢

Hello, can you tell me if this method work for square cushions??

Well explained, but it would be nice if the cutouts for the corners were drawn in the drawing. Otherwise it's a bit confusing.

The side where the zipper is to be must be the "W" in the LxWxT, right?

No the other way round zip goes lengthwise

Would it work still with buttons instead of zipper?

Sure, but zippers are way smoother on the finished cover and then you don't need to sew perfectly aligned button holes.

Ok... i have a thick cushion so its hard to measure. I measured tge total length and width of the slip cover and added 1/2 inch all the way around.. correct ?
@kimszalay2626
@kimszalay2626 Год назад
Also 3 inches thick so actually 1 inch all the way around instead if 1/2 inch? Sorry i suck at math...

Follow the way to measure in the video.

Why do you add thickness twice for the short side, but not for the long side? There’s a three inch (in your project) thickness all around. Am I missing something? L + T+ S But W+ W + T + T + S? I understand why we only have one L… but it seems like it needs to be L + T + T + S…

Just follow the instructions. It works. That's not the reason why.

When I did it, I added the three inches and it came out looking great. “That’s not the reason why” doesn’t answer my query. But thanks anyway.

Why is it so important to have the zipper go around the edges? The length of my cushion is 57 inches. Do i need the longer zipper to get the cushion inside?

You forgot to add the step that you sewed the side seam before boxing the last two corners. It was really hard to make sense of this so I kept looking at 16:45 through 17:00. I had thought I'd done something wrong.

Don’t know what I’ve done wrong but my finished cover has extra T on the back zip side and I’ve double checked the measurements
