I've also done pillow covers using towels for our outdoor furniture by our pool. The "towel pillows" are so much softer and cozier than the Sunbrella material used for most outdoor furniture and the towel pillow covers are easy to wash.

Thank you.....I have a sewing machine (not used in ages) but could also use some new pillow covers. When i buy them, I go for zippers so I can wash them. I may try my hand at doing the 'fold,' it sounds easier to make and of course to take the insert in and out of.

Hooray! Got my pillow inserts today from Amazon and they are nestled snugly in their covers on my couch! Perfect size and softness for afternoon naps.

So I am wondering if they will be too flat with 20x20 inserts but the next larger size is 22x22, much too big. I don't want them too full, either! Dilemma!

Your experience? I'm ordering online so can't return them

Are those clusters you can add or remove?
