I NEED COLOUR!!!

October 30, 2013 by Michele

Sorry there.

Didn’t mean to yell at you in the title.

It’s just that I’m desperate for more colour in here. This place is so drab and blaaaah and oooh sooo ho-hum with the beige couch and the beige cushions and the white walls and the light grey-green carpet. Laaaahhhhh.

Small, strategic pops of colour. Zero budget. Using stuff I’ve already got.

That’s the plan anyway.

First stop: cushion.

I’ve made a start on the above cushion design with Malka Dubawsky-inspired quilting. I’ve commenced the piecing. See below.

Sure hope this works.
