Away with the Toadstools!
Developing upon a theme, I took inspiration from the surrounding cotton fabric border in this patchwork wall hanging. For the centre panel I used a piece of aida, then cut out felt shapes for the toadstools and snails and hand appliquéd them to the aida. The finishing touches were made by adding satin butterflies, flowers and some buttons with a little simple embroidery and quilting. A wonderful wacky wallhanging!
