Hi Everyone, I did the rose and tulip cushions from Sherylac's earlier group posting. Here is the rose one so you can see more detail. The rose design came from EmbLibrary and the scrolls around the outside (which are a bit difficult to see in the photo) are from Anitagoodesigns. I used a baby blue de-lustered satin to embroider them on. Cheers, Claire

Claire, this is gorgeous. I love the scrolls, they make such a nice frame for your wonderful roses.

Thank you mops. I had to do 5 hoopings to complete each cushion, 1 for the roses/tulips and 4 for the scroll border - lining up the scrolls was a bit of a challenge. In total there is approx 5 hours of embroidery time!!! Cheers Claire

Hi Les, It took approx 5 hours to just embroider the designs for each cushion and that was without getting the placement of all the designs just right!!! I also made the cushion insert, so all up with embroidery and sewing each cushion took approx 10 hours of work... phew!!!

Claire, this is stunning - I bought this same design for a pillow - but have never gotten to it - I also love the scroll addition and actually have that design, as well - I love how you have put this all togehter - great job. *4U Shirlene

Thank you Shirlene, I made the rose & tulip design as big as my largest hoop could fit so it ended up 200 x 200mm and then pieced together the scroll designs to fit around it in my design package. I then had to split the scroll border into 4 to fit it in my hoop!!! Quite a bit of work but I was happy with the end result. Cheers Claire
Oh yes, this is well worth the effort - indeed.

Thank you for your lovely words Kerry. Next month's project is a sissor case so not a big surface to embroider, but I am sure we will see some magnificent work then too. It is so inspiring to see the work of others who often think of different things to yourself. Cheers Claire

Outstanding ! I think I have that rose design. I really like the scroll design you added. I have been wondering what type of stabilizer should be used on satin.
1 comment
Thanks!!! The stabiliser I used was 2 layers of medium weight cutaway and it worked well. Cheers Claire
