Garden Bench Cushion (plastic grass sack)

Grass seed came in the sack and I am glad now that my husband kept the sack. The plastic sack has a similar weave as burlap and unravels just about as bad. I cut a piece of foam that is about one inch thick to fit inside the sack and put the foam inside the sack. A zigzag stitch was used to sew up the end, nothing fancy, just put the two ends together and machine stitch.

Rummaging through a cabinet in the garage, actually looking for something else, I found this plastic sack. I of course am thinking what could I make out of this? How about a garden bench cushion?

Picture
The cushion is a little shorter than the length of the bench, but it is so cute on the bench, having a grass seed garden sack as a cushion.

Picture
The sack does have a fairly tight weave so it should repel water somewhat.

Looking through the flowers at a perfect place to sit and watch butterflies, bees and hummingbirds in one of our gardens.
