Cosy Cushion by Chris Hammacott A great project for using thicker fabrics. Chris used locally woven Welsh tweed for her very cosy cushion, but you could find something similar in a charity shop. Look out for nice ‘old’ tweed skirt suits or coats. A couple of unpicked skirts would yield more than enough fabric. You will need three toning tweeds for the cushion, preferably one plain & two checks, plus a little cotton checked fabric. Chris used a complementary dark green; a nice warm winter combination.
