Puppy Dream Cushions
I can't believe that it was back in 2014 that I wrote a post about some cushions I made with fabric from sample books that a shop near me was discarding. I showed pictures of some of the other fabrics, with my plans for more projects. But just typical, I didn't get round to any of my great plans.
But recently I noticed my knitted cushion covers have got very tatty, so I have finally used my free fabric to sew some new cushion covers.
This material is so velvety, and what I like is I would have never thought to combine the colours and patterns in this way, if I had not got these sample pieces. I did have to buy some zips (thank you Fabricland), and some backing material.
So although I know this is not the way to keep your new cushions in good order, they are clearly soft enough to let a puppy have sweet dreams.
Your cushions are lovely, Rosie looks very cosy and content lying there. :) x
ReplyDeleteI love fabric, and the ones you've used are gorgeous. They blend beautifully. Sweet dreams to your puppy!

ReplyDeleteThey are so pretty! Love the picture of the cushion on the garden bench. Such a cozy and relaxing place. And your dog is adorable; looks so comfy and happy napping on the cushion.
ReplyDeleteStunning and I do the same buy with a project in mind, then a few years come across the fabric. Puppy is growing and beautiful

ReplyDeleteSewing for a change is good. The dog seems to like the cusion. :-)
ReplyDeleteLovely cushions and what a great way to source lovely fabric. I love the fact you also take a little time to get round to acting on your crafting plans sometimes.
