A Tilda Cushion

This is a cushion I made for our Mystery Challenge 
at the NOTYQ Quilt Show back in October. 
Now that I've finally bought a cushion 
insert I can share it with you.
The challenge was to make a 16" x 16" cushion cover.
I decided I would challenge myself 
and do needle turn applique. 
It's not perfect but I'm happy how it turned out.
It is made from the same Tilda fabrics 
I am making my hexagon quilt with. 
The quilt is still a work in progress.
There are seven leaves and I used 
a different fabric for each of them. 
I also stitched each of the nine flower stems 
in a different shade of green.

Christmas Decorations

I received a kit to make this decoration 
at a recent stitching day I went to.
I was going to give it away but decided 
I liked it too much! 
It's now up on my wall! LOL!

I also made these ornaments to be gifted.
 
Following my previous post where I mentioned 
everyone now being no-reply bloggers, 
Jennifer from Elefantz Designs let me know that 
if you click reply, the email address suddenly appears,
even if it states no-reply blogger. 
Very strange! 

I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas.

Meet Rosie!

I recently did a class to make a Luna Lapin rabbit. 
I am so pleased with how Rosie turned out. 
It has been many years since I did a class 
and I really enjoyed it.
Of course she had to have 
a dress made in Tilda fabric! 
I still need to make her some bloomers 
but need to get some wide lace first.
This is the book we used. 
There are many outfits for Luna including 
shoes, lace-up boots and the most 
gorgeous felt coat. 
It was the coat that got me in!
The book also has outfits for a boy rabbit. 
There's also a big comfy chair to make 
but I don't really think I'll make one of those.

Thank you to everyone who has left me 
comments lately. Everyone now seems to 
be no-reply bloggers. I'm working on my laptop 
at the moment as my desk computer is being 
looked at so I don't have everyone's emails 
to be able to reply.
