Title: Paisley Pouffe
Post by: Nuttywife59 on October 09, 2019, 17:00:41 PM

Very pleased how this has turned out boy it took a lot of stuffing. I was going to give it to my grandson as he liked the one he saw in my local sewing shop but think he would probably prefer something a little plainer so printed out the design to use as pattern pieces to make him one slightly smaller.  [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

I made a liner for it which I filled with a very large bag of beans which wasn't enough so it's also has had some polyester wadding which I didn't like and old sigla quilt cover and 3 of hubby's old polo shirts to pad it out. It was a lot bigger than I thought it would be.

Years ago when my bean bag leaked I went to the localish cavity wall insulation people for beads. They don't charge 'craft' prices and the bags nearly filled my car!  0_0

I have been wanting to make a pouffe for ages and this has inspired me to get cracking. @Nuttywife59 did you make your own pattern or is it one you have bought?
