What a stupedous idea!
You just gave me a great idea for a folding chair my dear friend uses at Sunday School. She is disabled and has to use a back pillow and cushion and the back pillow alway's falls out the back. Now I know how to fix it for her.

Thanks for the great idea.

i was going to try to find the webbing to do it..and no one around here had any of the stuff. then joe says..sew something..lol!
i have had such a rough week..that these simple things brings me so much joy! i was just giddy over this simple fix! lol
so the next simple thing will be to take a couple of my old outdoor cushions and recover them for the little furbabies to lay on outside. i have left over fabric. may as well use it up.
first time i have worked with the heavier outdoor fabric.
i didn't have any of the heavier thread either..so i used a back stitch to make it last ...

what a great idea, I made new cushions for my swing one year, took the sewing machine outside to work, then decided to make a new canopy cover also. Turned out great.
