A Cushion of Hearts

I have been determined to see if I could use my dies and die cutting machine, that I use for card making, for fabrics.  This cushion is the result of a bit more investigation in that direction.



The backing is simple calico and the individual hearts are then satin stiched in place.  The cover is a simple envelope style one.

Sewing is taking over my life.

My first attempt to get back into sewing was to try out a cushion.  This was a remnant and I made it envelope style, piping with a contrasting brown.
The only thing was it went with my sofas
so I have gone on to make three more!

My next try was to make a cushion in felt and I wanted to decorate it - this was the result.
