    Some time ago I saw a cushion that was for metal folding chairs -- the type almost all of us probably sit in at quilt groups -- I can't remember where I saw it maybe someone will know. It had a cushion for the seat and on each side of the seat a pocket hung down to almost the floor. The pockets you could stick your supplies as you were working on your projects at quilt groups. I know I saw it in a quilting supply catalog like Keepsake Quilting, Connecting Threads, or Nancy's Notions - I mention these as they are the ones I normally get in the mail. However after doing numerous searches I have not found it. Maybe it has been discontinued? Anyway I don't know if it was available already made or if it was a pattern and you made it yourself. Does anyone know what I am talking about? Or do you know of a pattern that is available for one something like I describe.
    Going to quilting groups is uncomfortable for me as the chairs are just plain hard to sit in after awhile! I attended one today and my back is killing me tonight! I'm going to bring a cushion with me next time but thought making one would be nice if it was designed for this in particular.

    Yes, I remember seeing that not long ago. Have you tried the patterns at the fabric stores, maybe a Simplicity or McCalls craft section? Seems that I saw that pattern in one of those catalogs. I am sure all of us would be interested, when you find the source.

    yes the one I remember is something like this - I don't think it had all of the pockets this one does - I don't remember one on the front hanging down or that it folded up into a tote. But I think this well work out well - thanks so much. I thought someone would remember it. I have gotten a catalog from this company too so it might have been the one I remember.

    Here is the link for the free pattern. You can add a cushion or padding on the top for extra comfort.
