Janie says: I do love a good cushion and I really enjoyed making these two to accompany my recent Fruit Garden CAL blanket design. I have used motifs from the project to create panels, which are put together to make the cushion covers. There are two cushion cover projects to choose from and both are named after houses that were special to May Morris.
Kelmscott is the larger of the two cushion covers and is made up from three panels; a main front panel and two back panels with a central button fastening. The second cushion cover, which I have called Melsetter, is made from two panels with a subtle side opening with button fastening.
NOTE: To make the cushion covers you will need to make motifs from the Fruit Garden CAL patterns published in the book The Fruit Garden Blanket or download them from the Stylecraft website.
