'Folksy' cross-stitch cushion

 My 'folk art' inspired cushion...

After having designed and embroidered this cross-stitch design a while ago I've finally gotten around to doing something with it...! I bought a sweet red fabric with white hearts on it, so I decided to sew my embroidery onto this to make a cushion out of it, so that the red fabric borders the cross-stitch design and frames it. I added the red bobbly border to finish it off and add a bit more 'kitsch' to it!
