... personality shines

Doggy loving Mia made a kennel pin cushion, her personality shines through in her work......
We call her our own 'Kirsty Allsop'..what do you think?
Carly chose some lovely brights and pastels for her cushion cover. This cushion class taught a little bit of  patchwork, applique, fancy topstitching and also how to use the buttonhole foot and the button foot for the back opening.....
