Cushions to match...
After getting up rather early to go Birdwatching this morning the day turned overcast and drippy....a perfect day for sewing....so I did!!....
Cushions to match Mum's Quilt...I had a bit of D9P practise with the first one...I really didn't like it...but after looking at it (okay staring) it is really growing on me...
The second one is using the left over half square triangles (is that what they are called??) I sewed them together in a log cabin pattern so it spirals if you look at the centre purple triangle....
and the third one was a big gamble....I chose a block out of the block making book...made the biggest size and then added the border to make it big enough...It looks ok...still not sure about the green in the middle.....the block is called "Prickly Pear" I wanted something to tie the two other cases to with the half triangles and sqares...this will have to do...now I need another trip to SL to get some more homespun to finish the backs!
