Make My Week #21 - Lego Man Cushion

Another six-year-old birthday and another personalised cushion.
This little guy is a LEGO lover and so I thought I'd make him a little cushion with the iconic LEGO man on it.

I free-hand copied it and then stitched it on in felt.
Pretty pleased with it and I think the birthday boy was too.

  2. Looks great! Just wondering, what are you using to stuff these cushions? Are you buying inners? or poly fill??

    1. I usually buy an inner from spotlight for about $5 I think it actually works out cheaper than polyfill and it's already the right shape, easier to work with

  6. This is gorgeous Miriam! I wondered what the lego man was going to turn into when I spied you sewing him a few posts back. Now I know! I so love this idea.

Hi - if you comment from a mobile device I'll be able to read it but it won't show up because I use intense debate for other comments. I'd still love to know what you are thinking :o) xx
