Sewing the Cushions

I brought along my mother's sewing machine today and we sewed a couple of cushions- the lips and circular sandwich seem to be the easiest at this stage. We bought some rope to form the rib of the band cushion. At this stage the band cushion trial was quite unsuccessful as the hole left for the rope to be pushed through was ever-so-slightly too narrow, which meant the rope was only able to be pushed in about 10cm before becoming too difficult.
