Completing the First Couch Slipcover Cushion

"Okay, now, I've sewn all the way around. I have my two, my front panel and my bottom panel sewn on. And I've come to this overlapping section here, where we've made it bigger and it's going to fold under. Now before you complete sewing this, you want unzip the zipper panel, so that you can turn the pillow afterwards. So, if you, it will make it a lot easier if you totally unzip your pillow at that point, your cover at that point, and then we'll finish up this last side, closing the hole. And you just pinch the fabric together and fold it down, and just line it up on that side seam, right along; you can put a pin in there to hold it. And remember there's a lot of thicknesses here, so you want to go slowly over that very thick spot. And then that will complete this first cushion cover. Coming right up to the corner, feeling for the piping in there, and giving it a little back and forth reinforcement stitch at the end. Okay, now we've completed our first cushion cover.

And I have two of these cushions on my couch, so I'm going to repeat this for a second cushion, and you just follow the instructions exactly the same way from start to finish. And here's our first cushion cover."
