A Cushiony Finish...

Something that has been waiting around for ages to be put together finally got its turn today...a hand sewing cushion...
Nothing great and wonderous but done and dusted so the piece of foam (a $3 scrap bin off cut at Clark Rubber picked up months and months ago) is finally off the shelf and the fabric pieces no longer gathering dust on the cutting table...and something for OPAM for February and it isn't even the last day of the month!!!

Now I've an oops...I've been remiss and forgot to mention squishy mail...uploaded the photos and that was as far as it went...love the basket wrapping paper...
I was the lucky winner of some fabric from Thimblestich...
Pretty huh, it looks kinda blue in the photo but it is more green and I never seem to have greens in the stash when I want some so very welcome indeed...Thank you Susan...

Happy Stitching...

It's so weird how those simple things seem to gather the most dust :) Love me a hand-sewing cushion. I sat on a different part of my couch the other day for some stitching and didn't take my cushion with me- big mistake! Love the piping detail :)
