Create a Cushion

I had a fab Friday evening with a lovely group of ladies at Chertsey Museum - creating cushions

Debbie made this, cutting snips and weaving ribbon, then adding buttons

Chris made this, using a similar idea to Debbie's and adding lace flowers and buttons

Ann (who was adamant she didn't sew) made this, using cream lace that she decorated with fabric pens

Liz found some fab Monet inspired fabric and made this

And Vanessa made this for her granddaughter who loves spiders

I had a great evening and I think they did too - thanks Emma for letting us stay & play

A Finish at the Farm

The Broom Farm ladies have been busy creating, but as usual I've been too busy chatting to take many photos!

K is working on a cross stitch embroidery, L and A are making skirts (yes, dressmaking of sorts, but making it up as we go, no pattern to follow!) and G has just started on a bag, having finished this lovely cushion:

Kids Creating Cushions

Photo heavy - sorry, but the kids at Chertsey Museum made such great cushions today, I couldn't bear to leave any photos out!

 

How's that for a fun day!!!!
