This birdie printed cotton fabric was given to me by Effie about 3 years ago when I attended a machine sewing session in Middlesbrough. She had made a zipped purse and had the fabric left over.
I dug it out and made a 16 x16 inch cushion with an envelope back. The backing is cream calico. You know how the saying goes 'better late than never' !!
I love envelope style cushions - so easy compared to zips (I'm guessing - not been brave enough to attempt a zip!). This is a great cushion that will surely be a star in your home.
I'm a crafty fella living in Manchester U.K.
I love nothing better than to escape into my very untidy craftroom and mess around with stamps, inks , paint, fabric, yarn & anything else that's crafty for that matter!
A big warm welcome to 'Harpies Crafty Corner' which is a space to show and share my crafty creations and techniques. Hope your visit has been worthwhile and that you may have been inspired ! Please leave a comment, join my blog and most of all ....... enjoy !! Some of my creations can be bought in my Etsy Shop. I look forward to seeing you again soon.
