Firstly I sewed together nine 5" squares of Kaffe Fassett fabric and iron on some fusible wadding to the back. I melted some gold angelina fibres to cover the front, then free motion embroidered swirls in black to attach it.
I started the braid by using a cording foot, but actually found it quicker with my standard foot and a zig zag stitch! No plan here, I just kind of scribbled over the top of the cushion!
The back of the cushion cover is an envelope style.
Now I just need somewhere to put it!
That is really lovely, so soft looking, amazing colours, I LOVE Kaffe Fassett fabric ! The free motion embroidery & braid is awesome.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful how did you melt the Angelina fibres to get them like that please?
ReplyDeleteOoo what a great cushion! I am going to make some new covers for my sofa cushions and this has given me some ideas. Bought a free motion foot and flower foot after watching your inspirations on c&c. So I might doodle with flower foot instead of angelina fibres.
ReplyDeleteThis pillow is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWonderful creation!
ReplyDeleteI love your works
