Kenna's Cushions.. by julzmaioro

Kenna's Cushions..

Spent the morning with my eldest Grandaughter helping her with a School Ag day craft project.. we had so much fun.. she designed and did all the sewing herself, I was just there to guide her with use of the sewing machine.. This blanket was a great Aunts and not used any more so we thought we would up cycle it into cushions.. ( I have 3 more to make for my son and ourselves).. Jandles (flip flops/ thongs) are a bit of a NZ icon as is the Kiwi bird..
They are beautiful. I love the colours.

Really cool cushions - she's pretty creative and would've been nice for you to spend the morning with her.

What a great way to bond with your granddaughter. She must be pleased with the finished cushions. Wonderful collage to remember the day

I think these cushions are seriously good Julz....I'm sure they are as good & better than the ones you see in any shop.....a future designer?
