stitch



back in february i sent away these little nesting boxes for a project in stitch magazine, and now they're home. i made them from pieces of nature walk fabric given to me by the fabulous michelle of the even more fabulous cloud 9 organic fabrics. it was an absolute joy to work with, and i had a thoroughly lovely time concocting the project. my favourite piece i could have used over and over and over (for curtains, quilts, skirt, dress, you name it!) was 'clearing', a perfect print in every way.

and what a magazine this is! i've only flicked so far, but there's a brilliant article on different seams, which is SO useful, i know i shall refer to it again and again. i can't wait to sit down later with a cup of tea and enjoy the sunshine. apparently, the sun id disappearing for the foreseeable future, so i need to make the most of it!

Cushion will be at FoQ in the flesh.

Your boxes look very lovely too.
