Our weekend has been very much an “at-home” one. Since midweek, Rory has had the flu, with all it’s fevers and aches (there have been between 8 and 10 kids away in his class all week). On Friday he developed a double ear infection, loads of fun. Thankfully he is well and truly on the mend, and has been well enough to play with his sisters and eat a proper dinner.
Here is a cushion that I made yesterday afternoon (once Rory was starting to feel better). I made it with Lara’s lovely houses fabric. I was in love with this fabric back when it was just a sketch, and have had a bundle of co-ordinating fabrics put together for weeks. It looks almost as good as I imagined, that is, except for the binding.
Now that it is finished, Luke and I both think it would have looked better with dark brown binding, with just that little pop of colour on the front. Can I be bothered unpicking all the binding to change it? Perhaps I will wait and see if it grows on me. The rest of it is exactly as I imagined.
Here is a piccy of one of the Currawongs currently frequenting our backyard. Perhaps it is even the culprit who targeted my peg basket.
I think the cushion looks gorgeous as it is…with a splash of colour…stunning.
