I made these for my sister for her birthday, she has a light purple lounge and they look fantastic on it. I didnt get a photo on them on her lounge, but took the ones on mine.

The fabric is purple stretch satin, the design is a Kim Bradley design. I used a Robison-Anton Rayon cotton, colour Tamarack, its like an olive green. I also used purple cording on the edge. My sister loved them.

Hi Sandra,
I saw these in the process of them being made and they are even more beautiful in real life - no wonder your sister loved them. It is great to see the finished pieces - well done!
Cheers, Claire

Thank you Claire, I am happy with them after all. I didn't put the iron near the second one at the end, they didnt need it. I couldn't get a bolster pillow to fit so just used a square pillow rolled over. Turned out well. Thanks Sandra H.

Thank you Stickmuster, the bolster pillows are 14" wide and 21" long and wrap around to only one seem. I couldn't get a bolster pillow to fit so I used a 16" square insert folded over and instead of sewing it together I left it and put the ends on the seam side so if at any time you wanted a square insert you still had one.

Sandra, you have a private message and Thanks for the explanation, ****
