Cushions and Blocks

The last Textile Tuesday and Thursday of the month

I teach a block pattern. How to cut, put together and

the variations it can be used in.

The 'Block of The Month' is Star Blocks.

As you can see above they have been used by Muriel

to make a selection of cushions and these have been 

given as gifts.

The Star Blocks below were made by Carol and Sandra.

Caroline, Show and Tell

Caroline has been with us 6 months now and she is 

really getting addicted to sewing! 

She has brought a new sewing machine and is

trying out all the machine stitches and programming in

new embroidery patterns all the time.

We all loved these "Show and Tell".

Matishall Football Team Cushion

Anne has made this cushion for her Grand Son and it looks like 

she will have to make a few more for the team.

Each of the footballs are made of appliqued hexagons and

hand embroidered.

Garden Cushion

This is a cushion that Val has made using a photo transfer technique.

Its beautiful and I love to see the various techniques combined.

1950's Remake

Pat was given a pair of appliqued and embroidered

1950's chair back covers and she decided

she would like to remake them into something so they

could be used and enjoyed.

So, Pat came up with the idea of cushions.

They were cut down to size and the linen used

to make the backs along with some pink

gingham trim for the cushion pad pocket.

Also piping added.

Here you can see one the right way round and

one inside out, ready to finish.

Well done Pat your

'Make Do and Mend",

turned out beautiful.

Cushions to be proud of.
