Autumn Cushion


This cushion was inspired by my love of autumn and hedgehogs. We have had the pleasure of watching several families of hedgehogs in the garden.

The main panel is patchwork, machine stitched, and then the tree, leaves and hedgehog have been appliqued, hand stitched in place. A black button stitched in places makes a very good eye. The cover was then filled with a shop bought cushion pad.
