Birthday cushion

I saw this fabric at spotlight and had to make my daughter a cushion for her birthday ( I made it in December but forgot to blog about it. She loves dream catchers. I put an enclosed zipper in the back using this tutorial from s.o.t.a.k handmade.

And now for something completely different

I made a valentines mini quilt. I don't usually do any valentines day things. I also used pinks and oranges. NOT my usual colours. And I love it. I told my husband I made it for him but it is to go on my sewing room wall. We are racing 18kms in an outrigger canoe on Valentines day. How romantic. We are not even in the same boat! The tutorial is by Ivete from Gotham Quilts. I found it through Amy Friends, During Quiet time blog. Here is the link to the blog post with the link! Note to self- solid is prima homespun, Thistle from spotlight.
