More stripes ~ cushions with piping and zip!

My mum had some leftover fabric from reupholstering some dining chairs so asked if I would make a couple of cushion covers to match. I had a bit of excess fabric so thought I’d give piping a go As I’ve never done it before on cushions, and last time I tried it, it was with a circular pencil case end and was very fiddly.

I would have liked to have done the piping in the bias (with diagonal stripes), but that way is far too fabric hungry (unless I’m doing something wrong?) so have gone for horizontal stripes…

Zip detail, hidden by the piping!
