My in-laws also wanted to give a gift for the same baby so I have made her a cushion using the same fabric selections.
It's a quilt-as-you-go style cushion top which I really enjoyed doing.
As part of Notebook Magazine's craft room series in Melbourne, I'll be teaching a class to create cushions just like this one.
Interested? Stay tuned for details.
Andi :-)
Lucky Gretchen!

ReplyDeleteI enjoyed making a "quilt as you go" cushion front using an old blanket - it feels extra sturdy.

ReplyDeletePretty quilt and I just love the cushion! Lucky baby!
ReplyDeleteThat's beautiful! I'd LOVE to learn this 'quilt as you go' method. I'm enjoying quilting, though I have yet to finish one since I'm so intimidated by the actual stippling process -and my machine seems to agree with me.
ReplyDeleteI'll be watching for more info!
Great idea to practice quilt-as-you-go on a cushion-sized project.
ReplyDeleteI love that quilt (I may have said that before!)
