CUSHION is a seven-letter word

In between all the work on my baby quilts, I've taken some time out to make a few of these cushions as well.

I'm a Scrabble fan from way back, so when I saw the new range of merchandise the Scrabble people have released, I jumped on the fabric. And just about everyone I know got a Scrabble mug for Christmas with their initial on it.

 They're actually tea-towels, printed on linen, in the same size as the Scrabble board itself (that's 60 x 60 inches for those who aren't as nerdy as I am). I've backed them in a gorgeous black and white ticking, and each cushion has a zip so the cover can be washed as well.

I am in love with them. I think they are the ultimate in geek chic.
