Tumbling

I made a big floor cushion a while back that my youngest son immediately claimed as 'His Cushion' When my older son and daughter came from from school that day they both announced that they really really needed one each too. It's taken me a few weeks but I have finally made my big boy a floor cushion of his own.

I really like the Tumbler Pillow tutorial that Katy wrote for Fat Quarterly. I made my template bigger, to make full use of the charm pack I had. (I think I made it 4.5" high and 5" wide at the bottom) So my cushion is big at 25" square. As soon as he saw it my Big Boy announced he loved it, and I think he really does :)

I used a charm pack of Circa 1934 by Cosmo Cricket and some random black and white dotty fabric I had in my stash.

I've also made another little elephant. This one isn't for me either, and my daughter wants one too. Hopefully I'll get faster at making them the more I make :) I really like the fabric I used for this one. Nicey Jane by Heather Bailey. The pattern is also by Heather Bailey and is called Effie and Ollie.

Happy Wednesday!
