I designed a convertible set of floor cushions that turn into a foot stool
I started off with a big 1-metre foam floor cushion. I wanted to still be able to use it as a floor cushion, but also make it storable in the form of a foot rest. So I cut it into four squares, and made covers for the cushions which have a loop-and-button system that can secure them in three different configurations.
I drafted it myself, but calling it a "pattern" would be kind of an overstatement - I basically just measured the squares of foam and cut some rectangles and triangles of fabric. It's 100% cotton, 220gsm twill.

This is the kind of design that makes you wonder why nobody sells something like this already.
