Cushions, a winner and a competition piece

Hello!

Yet another beautiful day, so enjoying sunny times.

Today I have drawn a winner of my cushion giveaway comp.

It does seem to be all about the cushions at the mo. I have been making them for my new/old Ercol suite.

these are not actually made by me but you get the idea

I have been making critter cushions for Beech Road Festival, Chorlton, which is to be held this coming Sunday. I have even made one for a Terrys Fabric competition, has anyone else been involved in this ?

First, if I may, I would like to show you the cushion design that I made for the aforementioned comp.

As an entrant I was asked to choose 2 pieces of fabric from their range, I chose a nice graphic print for the front and a coordinating stripey for the back. 

 My fabric choice arrived the very next day along with a 50cm x 50cm cushion inner...how lovely, just my kind of thing!!

I have called my cushion Flo as it is modelled on my mums kitty, full name Flora Davies.

I have stuck to my tried and tested felt on fabric method because well,  that is how I roll.

'FLO'

I really enjoyed making something a bit different and it will be a lovely gift for my Mum.

What do you think? In with a chance?

So, enough about me, let me announce the winner of my comp.

This has been drawn by Littlest using a bowl and arrow technique (not a spelling mistake).

I think of her as Jammy Pudding, hope she doesn't mind. Well done Ali!

Let me know which cushion you would like and I will pop it in the post to you as soon as time permits.

Thanks for reading. x

A Giveaway!!

Hello!

My shop update came to an abrupt end yesterday at about the same time I found myself sat outside a bar in Chorlton...must try harder.

I am re-grouping today and I really do believe that things might happen.

I am hoping to add my badgers, my cats and my new raccoons.

I have just added a badger cushion to the shop shelves

I do think all this shop activity calls for a giveaway.

Lets be honest, Oooh Betty shop activity is very rare.

I would like to offer whoever the winner may be, the option to choose any cushion from my shop.

I will even make it in a colour to suit ones decor, I am that kinda girl.

Here are the rules.

You can follow me here on this blog of mine.

You can like me HERE on that Facebook page of mine.

It is, of course, open to my lovely existing followers.

Lets see how it goes :-)

Thanks for reading and I will be back when the shop update is complete (prob next month).
