Last March I made this cushion. I loved it, but I had meant it to be a gift for a very good friend of mine right from the start. It duly went to live in its new home and is - reportedly - well loved there.
Then in December I got asked to make another one. Not for the same person. The new one can be seen here.
I don't actually have my copy of the magazine yet. I have shamelessly nicked these photos from my friend's IG account. I was too excited to wait until I had my own copy to tell you. Friday, when the issue came out, my stomach flipflopped like it was possessed, but I had to calm down a bit before I could string a sentence together to tell you all.
The best bit about being in this issue of Love Patchwork & Quilting is that I am in there with some of my very best quilting friends, and four of them are my Brit Bee pals. Hadley, Fiona, and Laura Jane all have projects in this issue. And Trudi is the quilting goddess on some the best projects you will see in this magazine. It is so good to be able to share in this adventure together.
