Step 1Lets disassemble this sweater! Begin by cutting off the waistband if there is one.
-
Step 2Next cut off both sleeves at their seams.
-
Step 3Now place your basket on top of your sweater and cut an inch around the whole thing.
-
Step 4Turn the rectangles inside out and pin together.
-
Step 5Sew around all 4 sides of the cushion with a 1/2 in. inseam. Stop before you sew it completely shut.
-
Step 6Make sure you leave a two inch hole in the seam to turn the cushion inside out with. Go ahead and turn it inside out!
-
Step 7Next stuff your cushion full to desired fluffiness.
-
Step 8When its all stuffed go ahead and close it with some a simple ladder stitch, or any other hand sewing stitch.
-
Step 9Anyway, you'll want to give your whole basket (well except the bottom, who's gonna see?) a basic coat first and then let it dry. I used 6-7 thin coats.
-
Step 10I used a spare bottle of fabric paint to make the rope contrast again. I painted everything that had previously been pink, black.
When this is all dry, give it a good spray of clear sealer.
When that is all dry, add your cushion and you're done!
