I love kids sewing. My little miss decorated a cushion for her Besties birthday. She stitched every one of those feathers on, so proud!
After a trip to IKEA to choose a plain cushion cover and insert, we then chose the peacock pattern that we liked. Head over to The Sewing Loft to see the free pattern. We worked together to choose fabrics and trace the template onto heat and bond. After ironing it on we cut out each feather, body and crown and worked out where to place them. After ironing them onto the cushion my little miss then sewed on the feather with a zig zag stitch, and I sewed on the body and crown. She learnt a lot from this process, including sewing through both layers of the cushion!
