Puffy Pin Cushion

I've been inspired by Karen Ruane's blogsite http://www.karenruane.blogspot.com/ and all her exquisite embroideries. Thought I'd give reverse applique a go and made this pin cushion. I added a couple of puffs to give a dimensional look. Thanks Karen for the wonderful inspiration. I cut up an old chambray shirt and used a bit of green batik that I've been hoarding for eons. The colours worked well together.
