I'm on a roll.
This appalling weather has meant yet another day being spent indoors. So the sewing machine has been out again.
Can you believe that it only took me 45 minutes to make this...
I've only used about a third of that Ikea fabric I purchased recently - so that works out at about 50p worth. The cushion inner cost about £1.50, and the zip was a couple of quid. So I've got a bright new cushion for Violet's room for under a fiver. What a result.
Can you guess that I'm gearing up for something else?
Last week I spotted a display of Amy Butler patterns, and before I knew it, I'd purchased this pattern....
.....together with some beautiful fabrics in which to make it.
Pattern £7.50
Fabric £24.96
There are so many Amy Butler fabrics to choose from and they're all beautiful. It's a pity they're so darn expensive.
This project is a little daunting for me, mainly due to the cost of the fabric, but now I've mastered the art of putting in a zip, I'm sure I can master this too. Plus, if it turns out OK, I might be making more as Xmas presents.
