You'll need
Transfer paper
Cushion cover
Cotton fabric to match size of print, plus seam allowance
4 buttons
Needle and thread

Here's how
1. Download one (or all! ) of our four pretty floral images below and colour-print straight onto transfer paper.

2. Trim around each image to leave a 5mm border.

3. Lay the image face down on the cotton fabric on an ironing board. Place clean teatowels on top and iron over the image with the iron on the hottest setting (no steam).

4. Hem the edges of the fabric and position in the centre of your cushion cover. Add buttons and buttonholes to attach it.

Tip: enlarge the prints to suit your cushion size. Click below to view larger images.
