A Previous Project

Whilst doing a spot of tidying I came across a photo of a patchwork pillow I made for my brother a couple of years ago.


Was about to apologise for the quality of the photo but its come out much better than I expected.  Each of the colours is a different fabric, the blue was a real pain it kept on fraying.  It was all hand sewn with the thin cream, cord fabric strips being very tricky. It was backed with a black canvas fabric, unfortunately I didn't have the patience to make the cover removable. Loved the finished item and it hasn't put me off making another, possibly using a sewing machine, but you couldn't pay me to use the blue fabric again although it looks great.
