Re-vamp an outside chair

I used an old duvet to make the inside and old curtains for the outside of this cover.  Quite simply I laid the fabric to the chair, marked the cut line with a pen then cut it out. Now I had the pattern of the chair all I did was cut the backing and the duvet.  I doubled the duvet to make it really soft, to secure the edges where the duvet has been cut just pull the outer fabric together and sew around with a zig-zag stitch to stop the stuffing falling out.  I put a zip in the top portion and a couple of tabs to secure it to the chair.  Now all you have to do is find a good book and sit back and relax.
