1st finish for June

 I'd finished the cushion a few weeks back but wasn't happy with the way it looked when stuffed. Took it back apart to change the way i put the back on & bought a cushion insert to use. I finally got around to finishing it today. :) I had to cut the insert down as i could only find square ones & i needed a rectangle shape. I'm much happier now with the way the cushion looks with the insert. The pattern is from the lovely Shell. I've used Valdani threads for the embroidery which are beautiful to embroider with.
Happy Stitching,

love your pillow. I just dragged out one of mine to take for show and tell to our quilt bee Thursday. Need to get back in the pillow making business.

 At the start of March i had this pile of blocks. I couldn't get my head around how to turn all these differing block sizes into a quilt...
