Ella's cushion
This is based on the sunny spread blanket, but with only four squares plus the border. It's a birthday present for the 18 year old daughter of one of my oldest friends. Once I got my head round the detail of the circle (which did result in a lot of nail chewing and ripping out what I'd done - not helped by trying to do it while watching The Killing which has subtitles) it was a dream. I wanted to find a dark orange silk to line the cushion with and peek out through the holes but I couldn't find what I wanted so settled for a more restrained blue green silk. I hope she likes it!
