“I am really excited to bring this brand new class to the studio. Creating self covered buttons is one of my favourite techniques and when used on a cushion cover they look so professional.

“I absolutely love my pouf that has pride of place in our living room. Having made this entirely from fabric pieces in my stash and then filling it with scraps, it is very satisfying to put them all to good use.
