Music Cushions

The fronts of the music cushions



A longstanding friend of mine has a First in Music but now unfortunately now suffers from ME.  When I saw this set of fabrics I knew I had to make something for her and I thought a couple of cushions would be fast and useful.  One was for Christmas 2000 and one for her birthday in April 2001, I finished them in July 2001 and she received them in August!  Each cushion is 15" square.  When I was cutting the fabric my 3 year old son came to "help" and the large square from which the flying goose part of the pattern is made ended up as 6.5" not 6.25".  I didn't realise until I had made the flying geese and was putting the sections of the block together, I just kept on stitching and luckily once quilted up the extra fullness mostly vanished.
