Back in January 2012, I was interviewed about my handmade items by Jill at 'Creating my way to Success http://jembellish.blogspot.com/'
I discussed all of the items I made, what inspired me and a little info about me.
You can see (looking at my stores), the items I have made have not changed too much. I still do Aprons, Buntings, etc
I was asked 'What was next?'
I stated I wanted to add cushions to my range of handmade, vintage inspired items.
It's only taken me six years to finally commit time to it!
I have been collecting fabric for this purpose for over 10 years. I will introduce vintage, retro & traditional style handmade cushions. There will be some tea towel cushions and there will be some cushions using vintage linen / cotton fabrics such as Sanderson & Sheridan fabrics.
You can read my blog post about the interview here.
Zips were always one of my fears! I hated the look of them but I knew I had to conquer them.
In April 2012, I decided to pay for a lesson at The Thread Den.
I made a cushion, I was 'somewhat' happy with it but I just decided to not go ahead with cushions at that point, I also got too busy with other things.
Here is is:
It's 2018, I have started to make a range of cushions, they will be listed slowly on my Madeit & Etsy stores.
Here is a sample of what I have already made.
