Jones & I have both made a cushion each for the comfort of the couch & a little personal touch. We both love Melbourne and have both at different times lived in London - both of these places are dear to our hearts & we wanted to reflect this in some way.
Jones is a whiz with the sewing machine, but this is fairly new to me however in the words of handmade crafterneers everywhere, perfection is in the imperfection.
Jones used a beautiful linen bus roll panel for the front which poses a striking silhouette against the pale chair don't you think?
A clever little secret on the back: I love the stitched tram details!
& striped piping!
The Union Jack, a nervous venture for me, but I love to experiment with detail in the texture as opposed to colour.
Perhaps a sneaky mobile phone could fit into this pocket while cuddling up with a nice book?
A match made in linen wouldn't you say?
Special mention to Patchwork on Central Park where we get many lovely linens and materials.
Good God, you two are crafty minxes! I just popped over to tell you I love them... I want them... they would look sensational on my sofa!
