I’ve finished sewing a pair of cushions.
Initially I was only making one cushion, but when I this stripy patched square for the backing I thought it should be a cover of its own. I’m happy the offcuts of my log cabin triangle blocks found a home here, too.
And here’s how the triangles turned out.
I decided to use white piping to bring out the centre circle. Note to self – next time allow for half inch rather than quarter inch seams all the way around – much less fiddly, particularly with the myriad of overlapping log cabin seams.
The backs were two pieces of contrasting Good Folks’ material and a zipper closure.
Those colours are just fantastic.
I’m so glad I love the way they’ve turned out as they took a looooong time to put together.
Next up, a baby quilt using these fabrics:
Cushions…finis

Wow I loved your pillows, very super complex.
With the log cabin style.
Thanks Shirley! They took ages to make but I think the outcome was worth it. x x
Do you have pattern for this? Or strip size and triangle size?
Hi Althea, they were 1 inch strips and I think the equilateral triangles in the middle had 2″ sides.
