In September I signed up for a fabric challenge over at Intrepid Thread. By the time the fabric came I had forgotten all about it! Ha. The fabric sat on my table for quite a long time waiting for me to be inspired. Suddenly, yesterday, I knew what I wanted to do!
I worked all day and this little pillow came to life! I made a patchwork background from the mini charm pack we received, then used the other 2 fabrics to appliqué some orange peels. I had cut enough orange peels to do every square, but when I started to edit, and remove some, I liked it better! Sometimes less is more.

perfect! cute.
Gee, you are so clever. I love your cushion. It does look rather nice on that chair with the crocheted rug. Well done girl!
Super cute! I really like the design you came up with!
I am not really a pink girl but your pillow looks lovely and just perfect on your chair with the beautiful afghan...
What a lovely cushion cover Ellyn. I love orange peels. Did you raw edge appliqué or use the interfacing method? Love the colors and yes, it looks lovely with your SOL CAL.
This is gorgeous! I love Orange Peels in all their forms. Thanks for participating.
I like to read about how this came together. It's great to be open to changing things as you go to come to the final product. And the final product here is sure cute. And it's in a perfect spot. :)
Editing really upped the design factor here. Awesome pillow!
