Thanks!I did not have a pattern. I just measured the chair seat & added an extra 2" for the sides & 3" for the length. That seems like a lot, but with turning & a layer of batting in there it came out just right. I used a heavy cotton home dec fabric print & duck canvas for the back. I may add some ties to tie them at the arms &/or legs because right now they are just slipped on at the top. I think I am going to use Scotchgard &/or some kind of waterproofer on them.

Thanks everyone for all of the kind words!
