LEFTOVER WOOL CUSHION

My friend Emma is a keen knitter who uses her leftover wools, combined with a Kaffe Fassett pattern, to make cushion covers for her daughters. As she hasn't got a sewing machine, I end up sewing them together!  I featured a dotty cushion she had knitted in a post last December and have just finished the one shown below. The only problem with this one was that the cushion filler she gave me was too big so I had to open it up to transfer some of the filling to a new inner cover. That was when I discovered it was filled with feathers! There were feathers everywhere, so I wore a face mask and used my vacuum cleaner which became blocked!
