Quilt cover to cushion covers and elmer blanket

This might be my favourite blanket I have made yet! I used a fabric sample book for the front and an old hospital sheet for the back! Very cheap to make and I love the elmer the elephant type look to it!

 I made all these cushion covers from quilt covers that I have collected from car boots and charity shops - the first one (with orange flowers) is my favourite. I bought this quilt years ago and haven't had the courage to cut it up yet, I tried to put it on my quilt but it was a really funny shape so I finally took the plunge and cut it, I love the result!

Hope you have had a good weekend, I have been working on another blanket and spent Saturday with my sister making valentines t-shirts!

Blankets!!

It was my flat inspection today, the letting agents come around every 6 months or so to make sure I am looking after the flat!! I think I may have over done it on the blanket front!! I couldn't help it - love my patchwork blankets. The bottom picture, is the first one I ever made!! They are so fun and relatively easy to make!! I feel this weekend there could be a new one joining the gang!!

Oh and sorry fo rthe quality of pictures, I took them on my phone very late last night, after the final tidy!!
