Felt Confetti Pillow

January 6, 2011 By Spoonful of Sugar - 29 Comments

The Stitch Winter/Spring 2011 Issue will be hitting the news stands in just over a week.    I am thrilled to have my Felt Confetti Pillow on the cover. This issue is all about sewing techniques and you can read a preview here.

I haven’t seen the magazine yet but here are some photos I took of the cushion before I mailed it off.

We have recently bought new sofas for our Media Room and I can’t wait to make some more pillows to co-ordinate with this one to jazz up the space.  We have framed some old LP Album Covers on the walls which compliment the cushion – I might change over some of the covers – we have a big box in storage and it is great way to use them.

I started my 4 weeks annual leave yesterday from the day job, so hope to find some time to work on some home improvement projects over the summer. Although with a new school year to organise for, family birthdays, and a family holiday, I am sure the next few weeks will fly by!

    What a cool project! Great way to use felt scraps too. It reminds me of those penny rugs or coins I used to see. Can’t wait to get the newest issue of my fav magazine! Always fun to find your projects in there.

Sharing a closer look at the Handy Drawstring Pouc Sharing a closer look at the Handy Drawstring Pouch today — a sweet little project that’s as practical as it is pretty. I stitched this one in the blue and gold colourway of the Tilda Songbird collection and love how the soft watercolour florals shine in a small make. The pouch features cleverly shaped panels (with no boxed corners), stands tall when in use, and folds completely flat for storage. It’s also reversible, which makes it such a fun and versatile sew.   These little pouches are perfect for organising your sewing room, gifting to a friend, or popping into a project bag.The pattern includes three sizes, and you can find it in both my Pattern Store and Etsy shop. Comment HANDY and I’ll send the link straight to your inbox.A big thank you to @tilda_australia for gifting the beautiful fabric.#tildasongbird #drawstringbagpattern #aspoonfulofsugardesigns #tildafabrics #sewingproject
