Yep, we're getting there.


Let me explain my use of templates.


When you use a clipping mask to add the fabric to the template, you can extend the fabric beyond the template when your using the transform function. This allows you to get a better and more accurate fit!


Step 1


Use your Pen Tool to make a selection of the end of the cushion.

On a new layer, fill the selection with white..............this is your template.

Step 2


Add the fabric layer above the template layer. Right click the fabric layer and and choose 'create clipping mask'. You will see the angled arrow pointing to the layer below appear on the fabric layer.

Select the fabric layer.

Hit Command/Control + T to enter the transform function.

Manipulate the fabric into the position you desire using the technique described by dv8..........


NOTICE THAT I HAVE EXTENDED THE FABRIC BEYOND THE TEMPLATE. I don't have match the cushion perfectly because I have already done this with the Pen Tool and the template!

Click the checkmark or hit enter to accept the changes.

Create a new layer. Repeat the same steps for the side and top of the cushion.
