A Cushion for Maddie

 I saw this cushion on Pinterest and just had to make one for my sweet little grandaughter in Virginia.

I first traced and cut out the letters and appliqued them onto cream fabric using my heat bond method,

it makes life a whole lot easier when machine stitching. I then hand quilted around each letter to make them pop out.

Then this panel was stitched to the lilac ginham fabric, which is also used for the back of the cushion cover. She just loves butterflies so stitched this little one right in the corner for her.
