Florence cushions

My friend recently bought this lovely Florence Broadhurst fabric from here. I'm making her a couple of cushions for her lounge, she kindly gave me the rest of the fabric so I whipped up a couple for my friend's birthday this week, she has been in hospital with pneumonia so hopefully they will cheer her up a bit.

I used a charcoal pre made piping which I love (anything to get out of making my own) and an almost black micro suede. I positioned the zip across the back as I'm yet to learn how to add a zip in the bottom of piped cushions. I loved how they turned out and can't wait to make the other two.
