Felt Confetti Pillow

The Stitch Winter/Spring 2011 Issue will be hitting the news stands in just over a week.    I am thrilled to have my Felt Confetti Pillow on the cover. This issue is all about sewing techniques and you can read a preview here.




I haven't seen the magazine yet but here are some photos I took of the cushion before I mailed it off.




We have recently bought new sofas for our Media Room and I can't wait to make some more pillows to co-ordinate with this one to jazz up the space.  We have framed some old LP Album Covers on the walls which compliment the cushion - I might change over some of the covers - we have a big box in storage and it is great way to use them.

I started my 4 weeks annual leave yesterday from the day job, so hope to find some time to work on some home improvement projects over the summer. Although with a new school year to organise for, family birthdays, and a family holiday, I am sure the next few weeks will fly by!

What a cool project! Great way to use felt scraps too. It reminds me of those penny rugs or coins I used to see. Can't wait to get the newest issue of my fav magazine! Always fun to find your projects in there.

How did I get so behind on your blog posts?!? Congratulations on getting the cover, and I love your design - it makes me happy just looking at it! (Of course, I can't help ponder a red background...) :)

I followed the link from today’s post and this is one very, very, very nice pillow! No wonder it is on the cover. I would have bought the magazine just for it :-)
