It's that time of year - present giving and present making too.
Here is a cushion Clare made for her friend Grace as a Christmas gift.
Made with wool pencil rovings, using the punch-needle technique and working on her new wooden frame made by Tom (USA).
The centre panel is cotton lawn on which Clare photo-printed the chicken design. This panel was then quilted.
Now the backing has been stitched to the front and the cushion is complete.
I know Grace will be delighted with her gift.
MERRY CHRISTMAS and A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL
Jill
Thank you Jill, for featuring the cushion I made. The pic is of one of Grace.s own chickens. I have to mention that this technique, using a piece of fabric in the middle of hooking, was first used by yourself, I have merely copied your idea! And thanks for that.
ReplyDeleteLove sharing my ideas...pleased you've made good use of this one!
ReplyDeleteGrace will love this chicken cushion - I had forgotten it was a photo of one of Grace's chickens..that's wonderful!
Love the combination of quilting and hooking!
