So I finished my cushion for Punky & Me's Cushion Swap, yay! then like Lauren from Lozalicious suffered some severe cushion swap performance anxiety: my simple cushion seemed a little plain Jane compared to the beauties some people have created: perhaps to make myself feel better I shall describe the style of cushion as 'understated simplicity'?!
I wanted to make a snuggly colourful winter cushion with a men's shirt back and totally from the stash: I had a knitted strip made with a lovely variegated yarn which I sandwiched between some dusky pink corduroy, et volia! Made for Jacinta who turned out to be a fellow corduroy fan!

That cushion back is so cool (and coordinated)! Did you really include pens in the pocket? And I love the one you received too.
ReplyDeleteLove both cushions. The pens in the pocket are a fab idea.
ReplyDeleteHow cool is your cushion...love the back.
ReplyDeleteI also like the tones of the one you received.
Ha! just noticed the pen! Superb!
ReplyDeleteShirt-back cushions are where it's at, in my opinion. ;)
ReplyDeleteLove the one you received too, in fact, I am just enjoying this whole wonderful cushion swap vibe!
