Game of Scrabble before bedtime, with cushions?


 So after the inspiration of the lovely computer cushions (which by the way you need to post) I have been really wanting to make some cushions for the bedroom, not to mention the excuse to use my new felt.



 I cut out the letters freehand and had left over material from covering the chairs in the lounge = perfect cushions! I went with the brown and turquoise as this matched the chair in the bedroom (I also covered this chair as it was a hidious colour before!)


Blankee and Damon playing hide and seek!
And as we're on the cushion theme here are the ones I made for the lounge (made a couple months ago) out of a dress.

Baby Clothes Bouquet :)

After our trip up t'north to various little places i have finally got round to uploading the picture of the amazing baby bouquet we saw. Yes it looks so awesome, so naturally for the only evening i spent in the valleys i had to make my version for my new niece Emilia :)

I am a little sad i did not have my resources or enough time to make it as i really wanted it to look. Note for next time - must make sure there is something sturdy acting as the stem to hold the bouquet up and also strong wrapping of the clothes needed to ensure it doesn't fall apart. However, that said here is how mine looked:


 I actually wrapped the babygrows and muslin up with hair bobbles.

And used contrasting pink tissue paper to create the overall 'flower' appearance.




Giving of the gift, i'm just glad it stayed in one piece!
