For those of you who have followed my blog for a while now, you may remember this little sneak peek that I gave you back in October. Well I can finally reveal what I was making...
Here is my cushion that I designed for Homespun Magazine called Paisley Passion - featuring some of the gorgeous fabrics by Heather Bailey called Fresh Cut.
I was SO excited this week to received my copy of the latest Homespun and to see my cushion on the cover - I haven't had a lot of my projects front and centre on the cover, so this in itself was super exciting.
And here is my cushion inside the magazine...
I am honoured to be in this issue with such talented designers as Tita Leach, Natalie Lymer, Amanda Browning, Jhoanna Monte Aranez, Tonne Finnanger and many others... What an honour. It is an issue not to be missed...
AND in other exciting news - if all goes to plan, I will be showing you my BOM quilt as early as Monday - YIPEEE. I need to do a little more stitching but hopefully the quilt top will be finished this weekend. I can't WAIT to show you. Ok back to stitching x Janelle


Hi Janelle,
Yes this is a fab issue - I got v. excited when I saw it & was rapt to see all the designers you mentioned featured all in the same issue.
In particular I fell in love with your cushion - I'm a huge fan of Heather's fabric designs & I love how you used them. In particular I really like the modern fresh look of the hand-stitched paisley design. Congrats on being a cover girl!
