This cushion was inspired by the London Olympics 2012. I used pieces of denim and motives of London attractions. I used the idea of the Friendship Star Quilt Block.

The pattern block is very easy to complete. For me it was best to mount motifs of London in the four centers of the stars and in the middle square the symbol of the Olympic rings.
Finally get a very good size 42 x 42 cm ( 16,5 x 16,5 in )
The first cushion I gave as gift and then I sewed a second one for myself with some minor modifications
