Loose cushions

I recovered old cushions....followed the directions I found but not only did I have to take a bigger seam allowance but still too large.....is there anything I can do to make it look ok without having to take it apart? It is rectangle made with two sides and a strip.Name:  image.jpg

How much over size is it? If it's not too big ironing or steaming the cover to remove the wrinkles might help conceal that it's a bit large.

Hello and welcome to the forum. If you don't want to redo, just open up a seam to get the cushion out, get some Dacron batting (or at least a thick batting) and wrap the cushion with that. That should help with at least some of the excess.
In the future, make the cover an inch smaller and always wrap with batting.
