The lovely Annie from The Village Haberdashery sent me some of Heather Ross's fantastic new line Nursery Versery to play with. I fell head over heels with these gorgeous little mice when I first saw the preview on Heather's blog.
Annie sent me some co-ordinating solids with the mice and I stitched up a couple of cushions to show off those sweet prints.
I added a covered zip to the back of the cushions and there's a little tutorial of how I did it, over on the Village Haberdashery blog today if you're interested.
My daughter has already bagsied one of the cushions for her bed, and I suspect Annie's daughter may be laying claim to the other one, so I think I might stitch up a little pin cushion for myself :)
It was those two lady mice in the picture above that really captured me. They remind me of me and my sister :)
Happy Wednesday

gorgeous cushions! I saw the tutorial earlier - it's fab! Thanks for the great instructions!
ReplyDeleteI have already printed out your tutorial as I am scared of zips but your instructions seem less scary. I love the hand quilting around the hexagons. And I am a sucker for flannel - so cosy. Great work x
