I had this couch companion cut out,traced and ready to work on since early last year.,sitting in a zip lock bag.Finally I started on the embroidery section and this Friday I finished that and put it together today.I've made some changes to the pattern to make it easier for me next time I make it as the pattern had me stuffing the pin cushion before attatching it to the background fabric....way too hard to manouver when sewing it together on the machine so I unstuffed it reattached it again and then put the binding on before I stuffed the pincushion again.
I'll definately be making this again as it was fun despite the fustration with the pincushion,

It has turned out really lovely Barb and I love all the fabrics you used. I am glad it worked out for you.
Great work Barb , it looks lovely!
thanks for the info. one of them is on my to do one day list. I love it
I think my ziplock bag is related to yours, I have things like that everywhere. You did a great job on this project. This has got to go on my gift list for Christmas, thanks for the hints and saving us some trouble.
Now that is an item most of us can use, love it!!
You sure have been so busy just love it. Need to make myself one too. hehehehehe
This is beautiful - gotta love those colours you used. The funniest thing just happened - the last blog I looked at had just finished this exact same project. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely work Barb. All the things you sew are lovely.
Lovely work, Barb. Guess what - I have embroidered the exact same thing, back and front, and it is sitting in a plastic ziplock bag with cordinated materials (different from yours) waiting for me sew it. Thanks for your information re the Pin cushion. I must finish my one now. I've got a friend who I want to send to. I really enjoyed embroiderered this one. Me too - I'll do this one again. Keep on doing your UFOs. Hugs, Donna in Brisbane.
This one is so cute. Love the fabrics you have used in it. I have made the stitchery for this one so perhaps I should make it a finish in march OPAM.
Tis very nice Barb, pretty fabrics.
