Something sweet and twee.
Friend at work was looking for something different and unique, for his girlfriend who lives abroad. We went through a couple of suggestions and then came up with a love cushion, why not. With Valentines looming nearer it sounded like a great plan.... -___-. Can I just say for the record, having never made a cushion from scratch was bad enough(without a pattern) but using bondaweb sheet to stick down hearts.....never again, lol.
I was very pleased with the end result, although rough at some points it really had a very middle america quaint handmade feel to it. Would gladly make more and now having done the basic design I definitely see where I can improve on embelishment and cushion shape.

It's lovely Cameron, works really well. It definitely has that american hand stitched quilt feel to it. There certainly is a knack to fusing fabric, lol! It can truly drive you mad - and mess up your iron:)
