Autumn Inspired Banner Quilt

This is the banner quilt is one my Mum and I have been working

on together.

The squares are 2" and made from a variety of textiles.

Mum found the Embroidered centre pieces in a Thrift Shop.

There are two of them and it feels lovely to

give the embroidered chair backs a new lease of life.

They were made in the late 40's by the design and thread used.

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.
