I am still feeling drawn to all the gorgeous fruits burgeoning in the garden: the redcurrants, plums and cheery cherries dangling from the trees. They have inspired me to make this newest item in my Pipany range - a Berry Lavender Cushion.
This bowl of redcurrants picked from our old bush made me decide to add a Cornish Blue inspired appliqued bowl
and here it is...
I used a mix of techniques including hand embroidery, freehand machine embroidery and applique to get the effect I was after.
The reverse can be personalised with the name of your choice & a butterfly or two.
Who could fail to be inspired by such beautiful, glowing colours?
Not Isabella that's for sure.
So there you have it: a Pipany berry inspired lavender cushion, lovingly stitched by me in my little sewing room in (finally) sunny Cornwall & available here!
Do you like it? (Oh, I do hope so!) x
I so do Pipany!
ReplyDeleteLove the little detail of the cornish ware bowl. Too cute!

The cushion is gorgeous Pip, the embroidery is so delicate and finely stitched and I love the sweet little Cornish blue bowl - I think I'm going to have to pop over to your shop ...
ReplyDeleteOur gardens are loving all this rain aren't they ...my veggies are of giant proportions!
Have a lovely afternoon.

Pipany, you've come up with yet another fabulous design. The cushion has got that unique Pipany distillation of carefully observed nature, love of Cornwall, vast embroidery talents and a great sense of balance. Oh, I forgot ... it's also witty!
ReplyDeleteHoping you have quite a bit of that blue and white material at the ready. Think this one will be a best seller.

Love it especially as it has my name on it! Love the Cornish blue bowl too. So glad you have some sunshine now your garden produce seems to be growing well after all your rain and is much further advanced than ours.

ReplyDeleteHow can we not like it!! It's gorgeous.
