A Side Swap

If you remember, I made this quilt with some of my winnings of HR Nursery Versery.

I didn't use any of the pink colour ways as the quilt was for a baby boy. Lynz commented that she would take them off my hands and offered to make me a cushion in return. These FQs are too nice just to be put in a cupboard so I immediately said 'yes' to Lynz.

So last week a beautiful cushion dropped through the letterbox.

It is so gorgeous and I love the colourway. It looks right at home on my sofa. I love the +&x block and I know that they take time to do. So thank you Lynz for such a beautiful cushion. The back is just as lovely and although Lynz was using an old sewing machine with no zipper or 1/4" foot, I think that she has done a stonkingly good job.

Thank you Lynz. Now I want to see what you turn those pink FQs into.
