I am working on a cushion and it is for a friend. This time I have made sure I am not tempted to keep it myself. Most of the fabrics are hatbox by Tanya Whelan, which I love.
I have raw edge appliqued the H onto the background. I use fusible web and stick the shapes on by ironing them with the fusible web underneath. Then I sew around the edges leaving it raw. I sew around a couple of times and use different colours. I only used pale pink so you can hardly see it this time - I must buy some bright pink thread. Then I quilted it around the letter and also straight lines on either side of the seams around the large square. Now I just have to make it into a cushion. I am going to use my taronga zoo fabric and make an envelope opening. Then I shall give it to my good friend.
Have a great Wednesday!
That's going to be a cute pillow.
