Chevron Cushion

I've fallen in love with chevron print. I always like to get a bit crafty on my holidays and this lot is no different.

Following this blog I hope to create my own material to make a cushion for our brand new couch.

Sadly, my sewing machine is feeling a bit worse for wear and I won't be making the cushion on it anytime soon. Hopefully I will be able to use someone else's.

Started with a few rows. Didn't want to waste my time if I didn't like the result.

You can see here that i've started to remove some of the masking tape. Left it to dry for about an hour before doing so.

Almost finished my piece of fabric.
Can't wait for it to dry so I can remove the rest of the tape!
