More Patchwork

This is my second attempt at patch work, the strip approach has definatly worked although I have learned to cut the pieces as I go as I cut them all before hand and did not take of seam allowance so had to trim bits off I haven't stitched over this one and I only backed it in scraps as I had trouble with the material fraying and my machine didn't want to zig zag on this fabric it kept knotting up, most of the samples I have are a different material so I should not have the same problem with them. Sam has claimed this cushion and has put an order in for a much bigger one in black, white and orange.
