New Years make, updated

made a pattern......cut and sewed 8 patchwork seat cushions for my kitchen chairs...took photos...photos on my external photo storage facility on phone....but not on the same facility on computer....so folks you will have to wait all agog.....until they pop up on my computer....
When I saw them laid out on the floor....I decided while I was on a roll...I'd convert the circular pattern to a square one to make a rug for the kitchen while I am at it....
Happy New Year to my followers and the many casual viewers .... I am amazed still that apparently people in far flung places have visited....wished I'd kept a list now.....
Angels and Christmas tree folded books is the most visited post now... it has sailed past the one on the frozen fountain in Hull which was last years favorite.
Have a Happy,Healthy New Year....and have FUN if you can...
I punched the shapes onto cardboard and then joined the dots....

I didnt press the fabric...or pin it...just lined up and stitched...flipped and lined up the next piece...
I liked the effect on the floor....so squared the pattern for when the work is finished in the kitchen. Then I'll get my stash of jeans and blue fabrics out.....
Not having a healthy January.... D&V...followed by a hayfever reaction to carpet cleaner solution...( I only put a tiny bit in as it smelt strongly...and I'd chosen one that didn't say "citrus" or "Orchid") and then come down with a real humdinger of a common cold...and I am booked on a trip soon...guess I wont be going !!
On the bright side son has sorted computer for me !
