These beautiful Amy Butler for Renaissance Ribbons braids go well with any fabrics in similar colours, and will transform off-cuts from other projects into something truly special. Appliqué them edge to edge to create our rectangular and square cushion covers for a sumptuous brocade look.

Cut 27cm x 32cm of pink spot fabric for the centre panel and two 12cm x 32cm rectangles of floral fabric for the sides. With right sides facing, pin and tack one of the sides to the right-hand edge of the centre panel. Machine stitch, taking a 1cm seam, then press the seam allowance open. Add the other side panel to the left-hand edge in the same way.
