Quick EPP Cushions

I seem to be on a bit of a roll with cushions. a bit of EPP on the train with scraps, a night on the sewing machine and ta-da.... Cushions for a couple of kids.
For Leia and Luke - I was tempted to make Starwars gifts but resisted!


I love the little Vikings best of all, and am definitely converted to straight line quilting.


The heart backing is a cozy bit of flannel picked up a the £1 bucket at Asda, and the blue is a lovely heavier weight (drill?) cotton thats lovely to brush up  against. Can you tell I'm a cushion cuddler?

Now I just need to learn to add nice neat zips and make up proper inners for the cushions so they're a bit more durable. Who wants a cushion cover of they can't just bung it in the washing machine as needed?


Thanks to Antonia over at Melliapis for some cute scraps! Check out her page if you like baby carriers. She's made a couple of amazing ones lately!
