I chose a fabric called Calluna Amethyst.
Calluna Amethyst |
My idea was to embellish a cushion, so I started by making a simple envelope back cushion cover.
Front |
And back |
The materials |
And made crocheted roses and petals. For the roses I used a pattern from Petals to Picots. And for the petals and leaves I made it up as I went along!
The finished flowers and petals. |
After a lot of umming and ahing I finally settled on how I wanted the flowers to be arranged on the cushion.
The finished piece. |
The petals pop a lot more in real life than on the photo, unfortunately, but I'm really happy with the finished piece.
And I've still got enough fabric to make another cushion!
It looks great! (And reminds me that I need to get my skates on and sort out my blog post soon!) The colours in your fabric are lovely!
