Punch Needle Pattern: Vilja Cushion (by Veera Jussila)

The motif of the cushion is tufted onto the fabric after which the pieces are sewn together to create a cushion. You can adjust the size of the motif.

The pattern for the Vilja cushion was previously published in Beloved Patterns & Pentik knitting magazine, where the inspiration came from Pentik's decorative textiles and ceramics.
