Are you ready for the last part of the front side of this cushion cover? Well, here it is. Part 5 of In the Yarn Garden CAL. Let's square up our work :)
There will be one more part released Monday 1:st of August as well. That part will contain an optional pattern to use as a back side of your cushion cover, but you are of course free to make one more of the front side to use as back side :) There will also be joining instructions and some tips on what to do if your work is not the size you wished for.
But first, let's finish part 5!
