Scrap Happy
It was time to have another go at using up those fat quarters. These were fat quarters which some very kind friends sent to me. Others came from I just don’t know where.
Then our local ICA Guild decided on a workshop. It was a cushion cover workshop using fat quarters. Serndipity? Oh I think so.
However, Covid decided to pay a visit so I was not able to attend. the ladies shared their work and it inspired me. The cushion cover was made using disappearing 9 square, using 5” squares. So with a negative test I was able to get into my craft room again and I started.
It has been slow going as Covid was detremined that I was not going to be amking anything in a hurry. So, over a week I got a cushion cover made and I was just so happy. A simple thing but it gave me great joy.
I know have another a quarter of the way along and enough squares cut out for another two cushions. I remember reading that to change cushion covers was a way to inject change into a room. It is also a way of seeing what colours suit the room and those using the room.
Now with christmas on the horizon I think perhaps one or two using Christmas fabric might just be made, but in easy stages.
