I'm testing out the cushion I made for my window seat. It's very comfy, and doesn't look too bad either. I sewed a giant pillow case around a piece of foam cut to fit. It only took about 2 hours (well, it the back end isn't sewn up yet--I'm considering using velcro so I can take it off to wash it). It was fun breaking out my sewing machine. I'm still learning to sew, so practice is good. I only messed up a couple of times.


I spent about $130 on fabric, thread, and foam (including the extra yard of fabric I had to go get after I made a mistake). How much do custom cushions cost? Was it worth it to make my own? I guess if nothing else, I have a feeling of accomplishment.
Now I need to do something about that floor.
