The Princess Pillow!

i hope you're enjoying this friday...
i am,
i've had a quiet morning just mucking around at home
and
making cushions.

i had fun with this series
that vanessa kindly gave me fabric for.
i've matched her bright fat quarters
with various spots and dots
that i've had in my stash box!

this one was just made for princesses....

this is 'princess pencil'!
she came with my 'pink parcel'..from melody.

princess pencil is the ideal princess for a school cushion..hehe!



the princess pillow poses with princess pencil on the pink blanket!



princess pencil poses with pink polka dots on the pink blanket..haha!

they are about to be deposed by the 'bright 'n' stripey' twins...


vanessa from "flower photography" sent all of this amazingly vibrant fabric...
pop in and say 'hello' this afternoon...
she's producing some great photography,
much better than these pics!





they were fun to make...
do you like making stuff for kids?

cushion no's 22, 21 and 20 are done!
{19 to go for the nanango prep and kinder kids}

have a great weekend and i'll see you tomorrow
{God willing}
to share a bit of gratitude with maxabella...
now i'd better go and find a link for 'flower photography'!

p.s...eight cushion covers and three georgeous packs of facewashers and handtowels done up with pretty soaps {made by my lovely friend marie} will be posted this afternoon to jenny at theodore!

  14. Those twin pink and green cushions are lovely - I always put pink and green together - it never fails to work. If that's what you accomplish when you're just 'mucking around', what will you do when you really get serious??
