Experiments

While the children are home from school i find it difficult to get any serious sewing done so I thought that I would just work on some new ideas and designs. I have been wanting to expand my range of products to include items for the home, I love cushions so started here, I really want to make some cushions up in this design 


 But started with something a bit simpler


 the colours and construction are not quite right, but it wasn't a bad first attempt. Now the slightly scary bit, cushion covers need to be washed and i like to test everything first before selling, so my lovely new cover is now doing the rounds in my washing machine, fingers crossed x

Would love some suggestions on what designs you think would make good cushion covers :-)
