Scottie Dogs & Spots

I love cushions. So I thought why not make some?

I was in Fabric Magic last weekend and found an amazing new fabric collection, but I can't remember who it's by. There are a number of designs that are very Cath Kidson come Emma Bridgewater, from spots and stripes, to boats and cars. They use pastel colours with splashes of brighter colour and you can mix and match just about any of the designs. So with my Auntie's birthday coming up, I descided to make a cushion for her from these fabrics. Her house is full of them, but just one more cushion wouldn't hurt.

So here's my finished product:



Just a simple button-up cushion, no zips or anything flashy, measures 19" on the diagonal


Buttons from  Jumblejelly  haberdashery in Bradford on Avon

So I hope my Auntie likes the new addition to her cushion family. Hoping to make more of these in the coming months and get around to selling some once I've finally properly set up my Etsy account. My Etsy store is Jess Hawke Originals, where I'll soon be selling other textile products and other handmade items. Let me know what you think of this cushion design!

Ciao for now
