This block was real fun to make although I got a little carried away and made a mahoosive block with a tiny slither of fabric on one side for some reason. And here are the blocks so far...
It's going to be a really bright and fun quilt I think.
Then after a zip purchase or two, I finished my first ever pillow / cushion cover for the Modern She Made swap....
It's 20" square so quite big. I used Judith's fab tute on hiding the zip under a flap and followed Angela's idea of lining the cover front and back. I was dead pleased with how it turned out until 5am this morning when I realised that I'd sewn the lining on the wrong side of the zipper....
oops! can you see? |
Quick question though - should I add a binding or leave as is? I am leaning towards no binding but what do you think?
Oh, I forgot to add that my Mouthy Stitches tote and key fob were safely delivered to the lovely Erica who, in a weird 6 degrees of separation type thing, made the tote for Patti who made the tote for me! I LOVE THAT! She liked it, which was a massive relief as there was such loveliness and inventiveness on show that I was worried she would be a little let down. And she took a photo of the key fob I made that I forgot to photograph..
Ooh, I love mosaic blocks, they look great. And that cushion is so cute!
ReplyDeleteLove the cushion and I bet you were gutted to see the lining problem. I am sure that you will sort it. The mosaic blocks are very colorful. Di x
ReplyDeleteOh your cushion is lovely :-)
ReplyDeleteOooh, the mosaic block is fab! I love the colours.
ReplyDeleteThe mosaic blocks are great and I love the key ring. The cushion looks great - how annoying about the lining. Don't think it needs binding
ReplyDeleteFab keyring, and loving those bright blocks, I love that tutorial of Judith's - have made 6 cushions with it for Christmas presents this year! We missed you this week x
ReplyDeleteYou've been busy! Love that mosaic blocks!
