Another day, another two projects off The List
A friend asked for a cushion for her sister, with pictures of the sister's young son. She sent me loads of pictures and I couldn't decide on just a few to use. I've seen lots of Polaroid blocks recently and thought they would be a great idea to use lots of the photos.
I used Little Miss Shabby's pictures for my inspiration, and made this today.
* FINISHED cushion for Sam
The placemats have now been completed, all 12 of them. Lisa will deliver them to her friend's mum on Tuesday, so they have been ticked off

I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.
Great idea with the polaroids!
