I've been checking out the Shabby Chic website to see all the beautiful things for sale. When I saw the Union Jack wall hanging and pillow.. I knew it was for me! Being of English heritage I fell in love with it. I thought I would try my hand at making one.
I picked three coordinating fabrics I would use for the pillow. I decided to make a small version and I thought if it turned out alright I would make a larger and maybe a wall hanging. I think it turned out pretty good, next time I might make it more like the British flag.
Close up of the shabby fabrics I used. Look out for another coming soon...
The beautiful original by Rachel Ashwell.
