Cushion Course.....The finished Articles 02/26/2010
Well what a busy day. I am usually in my little cabin on my own singing along to the radio with no-one to talk to but the dog. BUT today I was teaching 8 people how to make 'professional' cushions! I have not talked so much in a long time.
I hope that my students thought that the day went well, but I'm pretty sure they did. The staff at the Eternal Maker were great, keeping us topped up with tea and coffee and feeding us all a lovely lunch.
ALL of the ladies went away with a complete cushion so mission accomplished...
I throughly enjoyed my first teaching experience, thank-you all so much for signing up. I'm now looking forward to teaching my next group how to make curtains next month.

Lots of lovely trimmings to choose from
Lots of lovely buttons too...

Pru's patchwork style cushion front starts to take effect.
Sophie presses her cushion panels
Just some of the sumptuous fabric to choose from.

Cushion Making Workshop 02/23/2010
I have my first teaching workshop booked in for Friday (26th Feb) This will be at 'The Eternal Maker' in Chichester. Apparently the course is fully booked with a waiting list!!
I must confess to being a bit nervous about teaching. I will try to be logical and not twitter on about irrelevant things.
We now have a new computer complete with all the tech that I need to keep this blog updated on a more regular basis. SO I will be adding more photos of my work and hopefully some of the cushions that are made on friday.
Fingers crossed! x K
