Two of the projects I've worked on for Sizzix over the past few months and haven't shared fully before are this owl cushion and petal mini quilt.

Every month I have to make a project or 2 or 3 that gets sent off to Sizzix for either a web tutorial or magazine projects. I get set a brief of what to make using particular dies and off I go. For these projects I was asked to make 2 items using the owl die and the leaves die, both of which are applique dies. My idea was that the projects could be made for a new baby, the mini quilt would make a pretty wall hanging or useful mat on a table and the cushion would be perfect decoration in a nursery.
I'm definitely going to make some more of those owl cushions for my niece's birthday this year, I think they'll be a big hit with her. She loves cushions, and everyone loves owls, don't they?
They both look fab, any little girl would love them!
ReplyDeleteHow pretty and cheery, and, yes, I think everyone loves owls, or they should :-)
ReplyDeleteThat leaf die - would it take the hard work out of Brioni's summer petals quilt?
ReplyDeletehi Nicky! Yes and no - I'm not sure what size the petals are on B's quilt, but this die would cut out similar shapes. There are 2 sizes of petal on the die though so you would end up with a mix of the 2 sizes. Katy
DeleteVery cute! I love the owl pillow and I think any little girl would like to have one of those. I will have to add it to my to-do Christmas gift list. Thanks for the great idea!
ReplyDeleteTutorial for that owl cushion?!! Oh yes please! :-)
