As promised even though you had to wait.

So after a month of waiting my fabric finally arrived from Spoonflower. I waited that long not because they are slow, but more because I am too tight to pay too much for postage. In the end it was worth the wait and the fabric is just as lovely as I had imagined.
This time I took advantage of other peoples fabric designs.

 I am planning to make a cool globe cushion with the world map one and am still tossing some ideas around my head for the circus people. Maybe a cool satchel?
But this one following has already been put to use

I bought some fab pale grey denim, a red zipper and made some piping with red bias. I had originally only planned one cushion, however in my spirit of trying not to throw out any good fabric I managed to patchwork a second cushion with the leftovers.

I love that we have some more original touches to our decor. Plus the fabric has such great colours in it that they really add some interest and life to our "neutral coloured lives"

Even this little dude approves.
Hope this inpsires you to make something fun too.

"PEACE" out for now.
