My Creative Space*

There is a big spotlight here. And I mean B.I.G. When going in to grab some curtains for our guest room, I couldn't go past these three fabrics. They look fabulous together and awesome in our living room "colour scheme" {read: what we have and how it is vaguely coming together}. Anyway, being lazy when it comes to sewing, and only having an antique (gorgeous) hand driven sewing machine, I cut around some cushion inserts I had, sewed 3 sides together and made one piece of fabric long enough to make a tuck at the end, like on a pillow case, for the cushion to sit in. No buttons, no zips, no hand sewing. Genius. I don't know why I hadn't thought of it earlier. Anyway, as long as you don't look inside them at the wonky sewing and loose threads, you'll see they look rather splendid!
Oh yeah and the pink one is all creased because I just got up form sitting on it to take the picture! Tehehe. Nothing like a bit of real life eh?
