Hi girls, Yes I made the Peacock cushion. Flower for all that knew. The peacock came from Hatched in Africa. This is the second one I've made the first one went to my Sister-in-law with all the "proper " crystals on it. I had to make do with 2 nd best. Not all are there either. All the girls cushions were SO different and SO lovely. Marvelous what you can come up with when you are set a "challenge". Interesting to see next Month's Project . This time I have to guess who made what as I am unable to go.

this pillow is soooo very beautiful.. what a wonderful job you did... how long did it take to embroider..??
1 comment
by roslyn 11 Jun 2009
thank you . The embroidery took a total of about 5 hours. Sorting the threads out took nearly as long. Because I wanted a cerain colour in my "bird" I had to test the design (through PE-layout and editing) to see the LOOK I wanted . did another in blues for my siser-in-law But I wanted Jade and greens . There are so many colour combinations you can get with the peacock .

thank you so much. My room where the cushion will go has got Jacobean flowers on the cushions, in "applique" so the "bird" won't look out of place. Started another one , (practice one) will finish that one to go with the other one.

thank you Shirlene. Every Month we set ourselves a challege ( Sheryl's BRIGHT idea and a goodie too) and see what we come up with. Fantasic idea too see all the different cushions the girls made. Lovely and different. Next month is a scissor holder. I get to judge. What a "hoot" let's see how many I get right.
by shirlener88 12 Jun 2009
Oh my - I have a cushion almost finished (I stopped because I didn't have any stuffing) and I did my scissor holder last week - that is unreal.

Thank you . I cut a 1" strip of fabric in teal( lucky I had some in my "stash" ) for the sashing and then with the 1/4 " seams came back to 1/2 " Stippled around the bird to the sashing. The border was left plain

LOVE IT! Just so you dont have to have second best on the crystals, wrap it up Roslyn i'll take it off your hands. lol. Just joking, yes all the cushions were very beautiful and I cant wait to see what I end up with for my sissor case and it wont be any of the clues you think they are. I dont know myself yet lol. It will be interesting. Love all your work as usual.
