Christmas cushions

I wanted to create something for Christmas this year, so I created this Christmas cushion first from my fabric stash.

Christmas cushion #1

Pattern for the Christmas tree block can be found at the McCall's quilting web site.

I then added 2.5 inch borders, the bottom borders are 5 x 2.5 inch squares joined together with a solid fabric 2.5 inch border added to complete. I added another white 2.5 inch border to bring out the borders.  It looks great with the little Christmas trees and the chevrons.

I then decided to make another cushion for my lovely sister Kia for Christmas.  I love the colours for this cushion I created.  So different to mine, but still gorgeous.
