I love the Echino Story fabric so much that I use it sparingly, across a number of projects.
For this project, I am using a remnant of grey wool and a fat quarter of Echino story in an Autumn colourway. I am just using one vertical section of this patchwork style fabric for the front of the cushion, and a horizontal strip to hem the envelope of the cushion.
Sew the three panels together to make the front of the cushion. Hem the two backs pieces, using the echino strip to add a splash of colour on the grey wool.
When the front is sewn together, I try a little machine embroidery, to extend the orange branches onto the grey.
And voilá... an easy, peasy cushion and some left overs from my Fat Quarter for some more Echino inspired projects.
