cushion sampler

This started out as a sampler of stitches and and I used it as the centre of a cushion for a few years. More recently it was converted to a small cushion with a 'smelly' filling. I had watched a TV program called 'Growing your own drugs' {I think} & a tip for sleepless nights was a pillow filled with hops [to make you drowsy] & lavender [to disguise the smell]. It still smells awful!!! It may be converted into something else soon!
