Do you want to make a roll cushion? It is true that with one of the most used accessories and that it does not cost anything to find them. But if you want to make your own, nothing better than to get down to work with all the steps we want to take today. They are a very safe measure to prevent the dreaded sudden death in the smallest of the house, since with these cushions they will prevent them from moving and turning.
Until they are said to promote a much deeper rest and that is always a good idea to keep in mind. So, be that as it may, if you want to have one with the same benefits that we mentioned but made by yourself or yourself, then you are in the right place because it will surely not be anything complicated for you. Shall we start?
What materials do I need to make a roll cushion?
On the one hand we are going to choose the fabric that we like the most. Here we can select colors or patterns that go according to our tastes, but yes, the best thing is that the fabric is cotton and anti-allergenic. Although the best thing is that when you have the fabric, you wash it before making the cushion. Because it will surely be in contact with the child's skin and we will always avoid unnecessary allergies. Remember that the size of the fabric can vary. On the one hand, it must be remembered that there are two types of basic cushions, which are the roller or caramel type and the wedge type. We are going to start by making one of the curlers and for this, must cover the length of the body but leaving the head free. If you are going to make a double cushion, then the roller that goes on the back will be longer than the one in front of us.
That said, in addition to the patterned cotton fabric, you will need another plain one, slightly smaller in size. You will also need cushion filling, sewing machine, thread and of course, scissors. Do you have everything at hand? Well now we do begin.
Make the positioning cushion yourself!
- You start by cutting out a rectangle from the cotton fabric but we had selected lisa.
- Now we fold the fabric in half and sew one of the shorter sides and another of the long ones, on the reverse.
- When we have it sewn, we turn the fabric over.
- It's time place the filling of what will be the inside of our anti-roll cushion. Try to make it very fluffy and not quite soft. Since it tends to be a firm but comfortable piece.
- When you have filled it in, it only remains to sew the part that was left open.
- As the patterned fabric is larger than the plain that we just filled, we will hem it in the shorter parts that will be the ones that will shape the cushion.
- Then fold in half, put the cushion with filling and sew to close the caramel. Of course, it has to be a smooth and compact finish. No protruding seams.
- Now it only remains to close the short parts, where we can make some gathers to imitate the shape of the candy itself.
- If you want to decorate it, you can also put some bows at each end, but remember that it is best to fix them well to avoid scares.
Another idea to make your cushion
If you don't want to have to go around looking for padding for the cushion, they also offer us this other alternative. We can choose a square filling of the most basic cushions that we have in the living room or even decorative in bed. Well, with that square finish, what we will have to do is try to fold it well to give it the circular shape and adjust it with tape or with the adhesive tape that you have on hand. Only with that step will you avoid having to do any of the steps that we show you in the previous section. It is true that you will need the cover in any case and there we will leave the finish you want to give it to your choice. Perhaps with prints as we mentioned with lace details as is the case. Now you know how to make your roll cushion!
