Applying myself

After T admired my strawberry cushion again on her recent visit (to be honest, I don't quite get it...), I decided to make one for her from the remaining fabric and to also try sewing on some appliques. Needless to say that I did a terrible job.... I'm not used to using the zigzag stitch on my machine and especially each of the corners, when I had to turn the fabric completely confused me: was the needle in the left or the right position???

 But it's the thought that counts, right?!
