Cushions galore!

In my bid to make a large number of presents recently, cushions has topped my list of 'favourite small gifts to make'!

The three cushions below are for the children of one of my best friends in England. I love these Cat and Vee panels, and this was a good excuse to buy some!!

The next cushion was made by Mr.10 as an end of year gift for his teacher, although I did do a fair bit of the sewing as he just can't sit still for long enough!


This is my sixth finish for the Q2 2014 FAL (I get my kids to do some of the hard work for me!!)
 Linking up with TGIFF and Sewjo Saturday.

  1. Oh Deborah - I love these cushions!! I haven't seen these panels before - they are beautiful but I wouldn't be able to choose a favourite. Your son has done a fantastic job on his teacher's cushion - what a special present!

  9. Your suit cases are going to be full of the most wonderful gifts!! These cushions are so wonderful. I love how you've set the panel in the corner rather than centered. My 10's teacher cushion is a beauty too, such a fun idea to put names on the squares.

  12. I love the Cat and Vee cushions. They are cute but not too cutesy if you know what I mean. I like the way the panels are set off by the patchwork too.

  13. Fabulous cushions! What a great gift. I'm also really into cushions at the moment, much quicker than quilts and a good way to try out styles and techniques on a smaller scale.
