Make a zippered cushion cover
Learn how to create your own embroidered cushion cover and insert a zip with a hidden flap.
Here's what you'll learn:
How to hand stitch a zip
You'll learn how to sew a zip, by hand (no sewing machine). I'll show you how to cut down a zip if it's too long, or add length to a zip that's too short.
Spiderweb embroidery
I'll share my variation of blanket stitch, so you can sew a pattern like my spiderweb. I show step-by-step how I created my design.
Hand piecing cushion cover
I show how to piece a cushion cover, and sew it into a fold over cushion with no zip. Perfect for an afternoon project!
FAQs
- When does the course start and finish?This is an on-demand course, which means that you get immediate access to it. You can watch it as many times as you like, whenever you like. My on-demand courses have lifetime access.
- How do I access the online course?All my courses are hosted on Teachable, so you can view via the desktop site or their (Apple only) app.
- Can I get a refund?Due to the digital nature of this course I don't offer refunds. But if you feel that the course isn't as described then please contact me and we can work something out.
- Is this for beginners? What about if I'm more advanced?This course shows how to insert a zipper into fabric that you'll then learn how to sew into a cushion cover. It's all sewn by hand, so you don't need a sewing machine. I also teach how to embroider a variation of a blanket-stitch to create a spiderweb design, as well as a pieced cushion cover design.
If you've never sewn a zip before this is perfect for you, as I show step by step how to do it. - What materials do I need?This is fully hand sewn, so you don't need a sewing machine. You'll need:
+ A zip - I use one that's 50cm, but I also show you how to cut down your zip if it's longer.
+ Fabric - my cushion is 50cm x 50cm, so you'll need one piece that is that size and then two backing pieces that are each twice that size (approx).
+ Hand sewing needles - I use embroidery needles
+ Thread (embroidery and machine), scissors, pins

Hi, I'm Ellie
A maker, writer, textile artist & creative connector.
My ethos is about slowing down, creating intentionally & gently guiding creatives (that’s you!) on how to listen to your inner whisper.
I work with an innate sense of just trying something; mistakes & brilliant results come side-by-side.
I work with natural plant dyes, gathering flowers, leaves, bark and berries from my garden and surrounding landscape, to create colour onto cloth, yarn and paper.
With these landscape colours as my guide, I sew, stitch, quilt, weave and create works that speak of my inner stories, memories, loss & sadness, as well as joys & small simple moments.
I live in the rainforest in Northern NSW, Australia with my husband and three creative (messy!) children.
I teach online workshops, coach creatives, write, photograph and gather community through my online Stitch Circle.
