Cross stitch cushions

It started with a trip to an art and craft shop.  Rather than order it online I thought I'd go to a real shop instead because I had a little list - translucent fimo, brown and burnt umbre pastel, sticky labels.
The thing is I love looking around craft shops. Some people can spend all day looking at clothes, I can spend hours looking at card, beads and other bits. In this shop they had some aida fabric.  More importantly it was 18 count which is small enough to use in a dolls house. I bought the fabric and a pack of embroidery threads. The strawberry making went by the wayside and I started stitching some designs which will probably end up as cushions.

Miniature Needlework Bedspread

Something that I made for my own doll's house. It was made on 22 count aida fabric and took me 5 months on and off to complete. I had a vague plan of the design but I didn't really plan anything. I also made the cushions.
