tree pillow and merry go round quilt
There's nothing quite as frightening as taking a pair of scissors to cut into something you've sewn! The results of doing reverse appliqué make that trepidation well worth it though.
This is the Tree Pillow, pattern from the book Sewing by Heart by Tone Finnanger, made for Sewing Quarter.
It's a lovely folk design, with birds and lots of curves; circles, flowers and leaves. I used two layers of cream cotton over the Sigrid Plum print from the Tilda Cottage Collection.
This meant the design only showed through the reverse appliqué areas that I cut away. It also gave enough stability to the cushion that it didn't really need quilting. I was really pleased with the result!
