I used the West Elm pouf as inspiration, "borrowing" the measurements to create my own beanbag last month.

Apart from a very badly sewn draught excluder, this was my first major project. I winged it - making it up as I went along. The instructions given above seem more than adequate to me (perhaps a little more needed on zipper sewing, I busted three while doing this) to create a box shape and I would have welcomed these when constructing mine.

Despite needing some more beans to "pouf" it out a bit more, I'm pretty proud of it. Though if it was turned inside out I wouldn't pass sewing 101.

Have a go, you may be surprised how easy it is.
