Create a Fun and Festive Spider Stool Cushion for Fall!

Transform your stool into a festive fall favorite with the Spider Stool Cushion! This charming project brings a playful touch to your decor, perfect for the autumn season. The cushion's top showcases a delightful spider face, crafted with heat transfer vinyl for a polished finish. To give the spider's body a lifelike feel, free-motion quilting adds a textured, dimensional look.

The underside of the cushion is made with non-slip fabric to ensure it stays securely in place, no matter where you use it. All the materials are precisely cut using your crafting machine, while assembly is a breeze with your sewing machine and a bit of hand stitching.

Sized to fit a 10” (25cm) stool, this project can be easily adjusted to suit your stool dimensions. Get creative this fall and add a dash of whimsy to your home with the Spider Stool Cushion!
