Pear cushion complete

At last I finished the cushion for my friend's birthday. Sometimes it's good to have a deadline cos then you know you have to make the extra effort to get it done! It turned out bigger than I thought, but very interesting to make. It was my first go at needle turn and jeez I have some learning skills to do there! I took a photo of it, but have yet to load for you all to see, I'll do that in a day or two.

Ready for stuffing

In the meantime I havn't tackled my bargello blocks for some time now.... As for my Wednesday sewing class, a few of us have begun to make a large bag (my very first). It will be a very interesting few weeks ahead. Can't wait to show you the end product!
