Shabby Union Flag cushion


I've been wanting to make a Union flag cushion for ages and this seemed the right time to do so. I used a foundation paper piecing pattern from Just Hands On TV, designed by Anne Baxter. It's nice and faded looking.

Love the cushions, you're right the faded fabric (I think they call it shabby chic) looks so nice, perfect for this!

Really like your pillow. I'm in the process of making a red, white and blue quilt and the first thing everyone says is IT Looks British.

This is a great idea. I love how you can see the backing through the stripes.
