Flower Fairy Appliquéd Cushion Cover

Flower Fairy Appliquéd Cushion Cover

For this patchwork cushion cover I used a variety of different materials. I first designed the centre panel flower fairy, all the tiny pieces were cut separately and hand appliquéd in place. Subsequent borders of satin ribbon, flower printed cotton, lace and then cotton satin for the outer border. After hand quilting, I then appliquéd the butterflies again by hand. Another unique piece of patchwork!

On The Farm - Cushion Cover

On The Farm – Cushion Cover

This cushion cover was made from a doodle I had done one day. I simplified the picture to make it simpler for patch-working, then used bright primary coloured cottons for the design and hand appliquéd all the small pieces to form the farm scene. As finishing touches I used some old buttons for tractor wheels and on the scarecrow’s jacket and embroidered some crows in the sky!

Is it wise to stay awake ALL night?

This is one of my unique cushion covers with an owl I designed, no two are ever the same. Maybe the buttons are different or the fabric cut to different sizes in the borders, or stars in different place, I never entirely or exactly  reproduce a handmade piece.

I hand appliquéd pieces of felt onto a navy blue spotty cotton fabric, which gives a good night time feel then added felt stars and moon. Hand quilted it simply and added old buttons for a finishing touch!

Donald the dog. Check out my Etsy site for more things are added as they are created!

After playing around with these shapes and colours, I decided on a new cushion design. I hand-drew the dog for applique and found some complimentary cottons and some lovely old matching buttons.
