Cate's Cushion!

last week...

{it'seemed like such a long week..i can't remember what day}

i got three georgeous parcels from the postie..

all containing cushions.

what with having to fill in paperwork for the tiny job i've been given..

{who'd a' thought it'd take so much time ~fiddling around over two days~

to fill in papers for such a little job}

and trying to get a few more cushions done myself..

and ordinary things like shopping

and regular commitments...

i never got photos done or posted of the cushions that came...

i apologise to cate and mindy and caroline.

anyway..today..i thought i'd start with cate's
'tweet'...

very 'tweet' {sweet} indeed...

all cate's little birds are sitting on a running stitch wire

and each bird is handstitched beautifully with blanket stitch.

a close up of the left hand bottom corner...cute!

from another angle...

if you love this cushion..

please visit cate @ keepcatebusy

and tell her how clever she is...

i have noted that there have been little comments she has made

trying to tell  us that she's not clever 'n' crafty...

but now we know better!

please forgive me for not showing much 'on the black couch' anymore...

but due to people living in my front room

my black couch is covered with all kinds of 'stuff'

and is now hard to get to!

so

this time and perhaps in the future..

i shall have to take photos

'on the pink blanket'!

by the way

i am extremely grateful for the help of

everybody's contributions of cushions and fabric...

we have sent well over 50 cushions out

with another dozen to go this week...

i couldn't have done it without

you!

so i'm joining in with the saturday's grateful posts

at 'maxabella's' this week...
