Now where can I get slime green/turning to puke colour for the background fabric????
Just over two weeks to go til your cushion covers should be posted Girls ...
How are you all doing ???
I finished my 'top' yesterday and I'mmostlypleased with it. I have lost a couple of tiny points in the making up but considering I pushed myself well out of my comfort zone, it's not too bad. :[ The self imposed pressure is because it's for someone else. I don't want them to open it and be disappointed. :\
Next comes the quilting. Oh dear! Keep It Simple methinks. :) I don't know why I do this to myself. Yes I do. It makes me do hard stuff that I wouldn't normally try.
Mine has been packed and will be posted in the morning :angel:
Ah, @Lilian I have to pack everything away tomorrow so won't be able to sew fro a couple of months :( so it had to be done. he Linus quilt won't be started before June :|
Hope not @Lilian because I posted mine today 0_0
I finally cut the pieces correctly at last! It should be finished in a few days, just waiting on the zip. phew!
I have been so excited to be making a cushion cover, I completely forgot I would be receiving one :o!
It arrived today, I've been out all day and it was lying on the mat when I came in. I am delighted with it :), thank you! You got my colours down to a tee and I really like the various animal patterns :). Photo to follow when I've put a cushion pad in it. :vintage:Spoiler: show
@wrenkins I'm never without a cup of tea and the cushions I've already got have little horses making up the pattern so even the more novelty fabrics have ended up being really well suited!I know! I did my research. 0_0
I have a Fiskars 24” folding ruler (https://www.fiskars.co.uk/products/Creating/Cutting-Mats-Rotary-Cutters-Rulers/acrylic-folding-ruler-6-x-24-1023902) - great for storage and for travelling.Well some people are just fancy! ;) 0_0
If I remember rightly, Debbie Shore did a tutorial for a folding/portable one of these.
Must go have a look see...
