1930's reproduction fabric patchwork cushions with embroidered hearts
Red gingham and white linen Chicken Scratch embroidered heart cushion
with vintage embroderie anglais trim
Antique European linen grain sack cushions............made from a beautiful textured thick linen grain sack with red stripes, these look wonderful in pale country style interiors with French, Scandinavian or Prairie style influences.......they look brilliant on my white sofa, and would look equally good on brown leather.
All of these cushions are now listed in my Etsy Shop here
I will be adding quite a few more vintage fabric cushions over the next week or so in various different styles, including some beautiful 1930's and 40's Bavarian pale florals, pretty 1950's pastel florals from the US, and bright 1960's and 70's patchwork cushions.
Thank you for all your comments on my last post!
I am slowly working my way through everyone's blogs, enjoying your beautiful Spring flowers, Easter trips, sewing and crochet projects and just generally catching up with you.
Happy May Day, supposedly the first day of Summer (according to wiki) !!!!
Well, it doesn't feel like it here at the moment, but hey, its not raining, there's a tin full of homemade blackberry muffins and a free day ahead to sew and add cushions to my shop - a rare day!
Have a good day wherever you are.
Lucky you...it's raining here, the first in a while and I don't like it!!
ReplyDeleteAll your cushions are gorgeous Gill, I couldn't even pick a favourite as they are all so beautiful! I do love your little embroidered heart!
Enjoy your sewing day,

Beautiful cushions, its certainly not like summer here. Hope that this is not a sign of things to come, its like a winters day. Have a great sewing day.
ReplyDeleteThey are all beautiful Gill, pretty patchwork and I love the chicken scratch especially. The linen grain sack cushions are stunning. Have a good weekend.

Great job on the cushions. I would have hard time choosing as I love them all. I also looked at your tutorials and your book list. You are so talented Gill and I wish I could sit down with you, a cup of tea and one of those blackberry muffins and we could look at fabric together. Happy May!
ReplyDeleteThese are all so pretty! I love embroidery on gingham. But those grain sack cushions!!! Oh my those are my favorite. Well done : )
ReplyDeleteThey are very pretty, I love the grain sack ones.
ReplyDeleteLovely cusions Gill! I can't choose a favorite: I love the grain sack fabric, but the flowery cusions are also very pretty!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend!

Such a wonderful variety of beautiful fresh colourful cushions you've made Gill! I love the flowers with embroidered hearts - oh, I love them all - and those sophisticated linen ones are to die for! Beautiful work, you should be very proud of them! Enjoy your sewing day but be super careful to keep those staining blackberries away from your gorgeous work …. Joy x
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I really like the ones with the embroidered hearts, but they are all lovely. xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cushions, and beautiful photos, Gill! I love all your cushions, the embroidery adds a very special handmade touch! I hope you have a happy weekend and the sun comes out!

Just been lucky enough to snap up some of your lovely cushions - I don't think they will stay in your shop long - they are so pretty!
ReplyDeleteWell, you already know that I LOVE these, but I hadn't seen a close-up of that heart thing you did on the gingham! That is SO effective - really lovely. I bet they sell really quickly for you! xCathy
