NOTES
LARGE CUSHION - We used 16 differentcolours but it would work just as well with six different fabrics, just make sure you buy three times the amount.

CUSHION BACKS - We used a cotton drill fabric – it is better to find a fabric that is a slightly heavier weight then quilters cotton. Needlecord, velvet, cotton drill, upholstery weight fabrics are all good choices . . . nothing stretchy though!
