Wedding Present

Cushions are going to be my main focus for my next few projects I would say.  I have the extreme pleasure of helping out Kat @ Paris Cheek Accessories while she is busy with wedding plans and then her honeymoon so that is giving me a nice creative outlet for now.


Speaking of Kat, my next project is her wedding present.  She has asked me for some cushions for her living room which is in a lovely 50's / 60's ? era house.  The carpet is brown and cream and she currently has some green cushions in there so I might see if I can fit it in with those or just try and tie it in with the carpet and wooden furniture.


So my Inspiration for this project is the colours brown, cream, green and wooden furniture.  Thanks to the era of the house it will also  be keeping in-line with the majority of my inspiration - retro!


FABRIC


Some gorgeous selections at http://www.funkyfabrix.com.au/.  They have such a stunning collection of fabrics, a really cute and easy site to navigate and they happen to be based in my hometown of Brisbane.  I will have to pop in there and check them out next time I am visiting Brisbane.  


I can't go too crazy, although I wanted to buy everything.  I am not sure if the letters would go but think that I might make cushions for my own house with the letters.  I am leaning towards the bamboo as I think it will suit her house but I will see how it turns out.

I love and was tempted by the Senioritias,  I think I will focus on the designer of this fabric for my next collection.
