Nest . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Today I had myself an idea for a project . . . . . . . . . .

I got out my sewing machine and hatched a plan . . . . . .

(Do you get it? . . . . . . Eggs? . . . .  . nest? . . . . . . Hatched? . . . . Hee hee!!)

I cut out some eggs from an Osborne and Little fabric . . . . . 

Drew out my birds nest and got busy with my sewing machine . . . . .

Yes, it's nearly there . . . . . . .  . . . . . .

Ta dah . . . . . . . . .  .

Just a quck press . . . . .  ..  . . .  . . .

And then I can make it into a cushions . . . . . . . . . . .

Do you like large . . . . . . . . . . . ?

Or small . . . . .  . . . . . . . .  . . . ?

Or just plain old Egg and Feather?

I love them all, probably the smaller square one. I love your pun, I really wish I had sewing machine skills. Seems I can comment on your blog again now Helen. jayne x

That is absolutely fabulous. I would rather have one of those than a big fat chocolate egg any time!!! My vote goes for the large one, would look fab on the window seat at Lavender! Amanda xxx

Amazing stitching (and play on words!). I have never tried this free machine embroidery (or whatever its official name is) but have ummed and aahed about buying the special foot for my machine. Your cushion may have convinced me to get one!

My vote goes for the small one but they are all lovely, what a nice cosy day you must have had at your sewing machine.
