More craftiness

[elettaria]

I decided to give tapestry a try, and made myself a cushion. Here it can be seen reposing against my green sofa with one of the slightly larger light green cushions I have. Fun and soothing to do, but it takes forever to cover both sides of a 12" x 12" cushion, so a tad boring at times. The first picture is four-sided Florentine work, a really basic pattern, and for the other side I did it as a sort of sampler and tried out various different stitches, including making up one or two.

Hi, I'm gonna add you as a friend, hope that's alright. My own journal can be a bit drama-ish so you probably want won't to friend me back (re your userinfo) which is cool, I just fancied reading yours. Anna xxx

PS The cushion is beautiful - love the colours

I'm seriously impressed! Beautiful colours. I've recently realised that I nearly always think of chord four as green...
