Orange Peel Cushion Tutorial




Well, today is a very exciting day, as I'm guest blogger over at Simply Solids. I've never been a guest blogger before!!
Justine from Simply Solids sent me a lovely selection of fabrics and I came up with this cushion idea.
It's very easy to make. The orange peel shape leaves are machine appliquéd onto the cushion front, so no curved piecing involved! and it has an envelope back so no zips either!

Do pop over to Simply Solids blog to see the full post. 
You can also download the PDF with full instructions, orange peel template and photo tutorial here
It's a perfect size for using outdoors now the spring-like weather has arrived (along with a good book and a cup of tea, of course!) and as Justine so rightly says - it would make a great Mother's day gift.
