Acorn Cushion Sewing Pattern PDF + Tutorial | Beginner-Friendly Autumn Decor
Details
Create a soft, sculptural Acorn Cushion with Oak Leaves — a simple autumn sewing project designed to be approachable for beginners while still giving a beautifully finished result.
This pattern is part of the Pound Patterns collection, created as an affordable way to try an EFI Little Things project.
About the Pattern
This digital sewing pattern and tutorial allows you to make a padded and lightly quilted acorn cushion with coordinating oak leaves.
The construction is intentionally simple, but the padded layers help the finished cushion hold a smooth, rounded shape when firmly stuffed, without obvious lumps showing through the surface.
The cushion works especially well in linen or cotton fabrics and can also be customised with embroidery or other decorative details.
Finished Size
Approx. 42 × 35 cm
