This week I got these cushions finished.....
They started as a test block for a lap quilt I am making. I liked the block so much I decided to make another and turn them into a pair of cushions.
I quilted feathers all over, although they do not show up too well on the darker patterned fabric.
I saw this block being demonstrated by Jenny from the Missouri Star Quilt Company. You can find the tutorial here. Jenny uses 10" squares with her block finishing at 25". I did a slightly smaller version, using 8" squares to give me a finished block of 17".
I have used this block for a lap quilt I'm making.... here's a wee sneaky peek
I am having a lot of fun with these feathers - just the borders to finish quilting then it will be ready for binding.
So hopefully I will be back very soon with another finish.
See you then.
Rhianon.
