I’ve been plodding along lately trying to catch up on UFO’s and treating myself to a couple of new projects too. After getting into the cushion making mode following the order the other week back I made another using the Cathedral Window variation.
This time a I used a fabric with a Maori design on it – it seemed to suit the design, but this time I placed the blocks on point and chose to reverse the colour on just one. Sorry about the glare on the photo – I have the cushion in the shop for sale and have it wrapped in cellophane.
Another cushion I made was designed by the gorgeous Fee of ‘Designs By Fee’ fame. I had collected one of the far too many stitching magazines that I buy and was taken with the cushion on the cover – it turned out to be one of Fee’s. With a little bit of stitchery and a few lengths of Robin Pandolph leftovers – taa daa – another finish.
Then today, with the weather becoming so awful and not feeling like doing something like housework (well, why would you?) I raided the shop and acquired a couple of bits of new (to the shop) fabric. From the cute fabrics I stitched and stuffed a little Elephant named Elmore.
Now I’m starting to get back into the groove and with DH going to be away for the next week I hope to be able to share a whole lot more.
Have a great week ahead
