I couldn't think of what to write about today so decided to add some colour to this blog by showing you my new cushions..the one above is a fabulous velveteen dog that Nanny got me for Christmas...he was the only one in the shop and looked very lonely...I am glad he got to come home with me...Stellar has treated him with great respect and is often found napping on the couch with her head resting on him.
The beautiful ruby red floral cushions were a Birthday pressy from Mum and Dad...they are glorious and look fabulous on the leather couches.
These two cushions were also Christmas cushions...the native birds are a handmade cushion made by my clever sister in law, Chocolate Britches...it even has a very professional zip in it with chocolate coloured corduroy on the back!! I got another green themed cushion from Nanny for Christmas...she is very sneaky, it was a surprise cushion and is the most marvellous colours and texture!
Just added this photo of one of my latest paintings, done a couple of months ago...
Check out the hard work going on in the spare room...R has shown amazing perseverance with this despicable job...stripping many layers of the most stuck on wallpaper...you can see the strange original paper that was hidden beneath other numerous papers...weird Chinese looking infants and blue and pink rabbits....R has been working on it all week...what a mission!!Finally, happy birthday to my lovely Dad!! I feel very lucky to have such a fabulous, sweet father...love you Dad!! xxxx

Love the cushions! The tui one is really cool. Great idea Choccy B. I must make a few for our place. I saved some Kaffe Fassett fabric for doing some. XXX
Hmmm, Nanny's cushion is lovely :-) And of course, I love the velvet cushions from Mariposa, like my bag from there. R is working hard. It will be good to have a break at the races tomorrow. Looking forward to it!
