Now that is gorgeous! Again hand sewn? Do you realise that one day crafters will be the only survivors because we can make things without the use of electricity etc. Mind you, I'lll buy myself a wind-up battery powered laptop to keep in contact with you all!

Lol! Built a bycicle powered one: 'ride kids, ride! I'm losing power!' yes I did hand sew it, and it only took a couple of hours which isn't bad for me. The blanket stitch isn't perfect but hey ho I'm getting better. With the leftover fabric I've made my daughter a matching hanging heart name thingy (can't think of its proper name, too much wine). Il post a pic tomorrow :)

Loving the cushions & doo dahs MaddyMoo & of course if there's one thing kids love more than anything, it's stuff with their name on, even in today's world with all the fancy electronics & toys at their disposal, they continue to be utterly delighted with something that is personalised & 'just for them'!
I like the fabric for your son's cushion & presumably so does he, if he chose it himself! (A fatal error usually asking them to 'pick what they like' as the little cherubs always seem to make a beeline for whatever would have been our last choice! lol) :star:

I love the hangings as well! Clever you - take a bow!

[MaddyMoo]

Thank you for the compliments :) I'm quite pleased really, I know they are far from perfect but they are my first few makes. I really don't like the fabric for Lewis's cushion lol! Today I made a bunny, oh it looks daft! I sewed it inside out then turned it the right way, it's bunched near the ears. Going to do another with blanket stitch seeing see how that turns out.
