pouf sewing – wip + giveaway

hello Wednesday!
so…today I am going to talk a bit about sewing the pouf…and some tips…
pouf sewing
click here to read about the beginning of this project…
each pouf has 30 of these sections – 15 for the top and 15 for the bottom!

and 30 sections of canvas and batting = lots of cutting!

the next step is to baste together print fabric, canvas and batting…
the pattern recommends using a Jeans needle, which I would do…
I also used my walking foot for most of this project which made sewing much smoother….

after basting, you trim off the excess canvas and batting…don’t skip this!

so…the next step was to layout pieces to put into 3 sections with 5 pieces in each…
do you see a problem??
hmmmm….even number of fabrics – odd number of pieces!

    These pretties look like Blueberry park by Karen Lewis, looking forward to seeing your completed pouf, wondering how much stuffing it will require.

    I would also guess Blueberry Park. The pouff looks cool, I might give one a go once the kids leave home and take one of our many footstools away. I think the cats would love it.

    Blueberry Park! I’ve been meaning to make a pouf. One day I will get to it…

    The fabric is from Blueberry Park; Robert Kaufman Fabrics. I especially like the BLACK sunflower print by Karen Lewis from Blueberry Park. Your pouf is coming along nicely!
