Kosciusko Cushion II

I was really happy with the way the original Kosciusko Cushion came out, and seems so were a few other people. It's really encouraging when I get positive comments, because I'm my own worst critic and see all the things wrong in what I make.

So I was wrapped when I received an order to make one. Rather than my craft costing me money, I would be able to add to the other side of the balance sheet for once! So when I was at Sewjourn  last weekend, I made sure the first thing I did was finish off the cushion. That way if I got distracted with the talking, wine, chocolate (get the idea from Lara's post), I had finished what I "had to do".

I've made a couple of changes this time. I've added cream to the colour scheme, and made the back more "earthy" rather than "leafy" (even though that's not a really word).

I'm happy with how it has come together. Just hope the new owner is!

  4. Hey Megan love all the colours in this cushion and the fact it has a story behind it for the inspiration......

    Both sides look fab and I'm sure the new owner will love it too. Nice to have orders coming in .

  5. I loved that cushion and tried to get a good photo of it for my Sewjourn post, but the colours I captured didn't do the real thing any justice. It's just gorgeous.
