Sew simple
Lace facing lightens up a dark cushion for the summer. To cover one side of a cushion, cut a piece one-quarter inch larger than the cushion on all sides. Press a quarter inch single hem, then slipstitch the lace to the cushion, catching stitches into all side seams. To add lace trim, cut a length or two equal to the circumference of the cushion plus two inches. Press a single half-inch hem at each end. Wrap the trim around the cushion, overlapping hemmed edges, then hand-stitch lace to itself along the overlap.
