Keeping chickens is popular in the small Cotswold village where I live - they make characterful pets and what could be better than fresh eggs for breakfast!

My love of designing and appliqué is inspired by Poppy Treffry and Cat Rowe, whose work I admire. They inspired me to learn this technique and get creative with designs of my own.

This is a custom-made item and cannot be returned unless faulty.

Full description

These quirky Cotswold chickens in a palette of soft country colours are appliquéd onto a pale grey and ivory striped heavy weave cotton by Susie Watson Designs. All fabrics are cotton.

The cushion reverse is a closely woven smoke grey polka dot cotton by Clarke and Clarke Designs. The cushion closes at the back envelope style, with 2 stylish circular coconut shell buttons. The cushion measures approximately 18 by 12 inches and the feather cushion pad has a cotton cover.

All the internal edges are double overlocked for a strong and professional finish.

A special character of free motion appliqué is that the edges of the design begin to fray over time. If washing is necessary I would recommend gentle hand washing only, drying flat and pressing well afterwards.

Designed by Jo Hawley in Chipping norton
