Not a question. For the past 4 weeks I've been looking for fabric with word printed on it as I wanted to embroider flowers and birds in the corner for scatter cushions for our patio. I've been to every shop around and on the internet. Well I did not find any but look what I got today by accident>

I found the cushions and the embroidery is so beautiful on it and much larger than what I could do - they are mega sized.

Hi Devon - can not take credit - no I did not do any of them I bought them. I could find the right fabric but this was exactly what I had in mind. Obviously mine would not have been so professional or beautiful.

We must have same taste as I bought exactly the same at a large store near Cape Town. It has a bookholder embroiderd with protea as well, beautiful but pricey, hugs S*

I actualy was in the store for something else when I saw them. Luckily my husband loved them even more than I did so he bought me enough for my front and back patios.

I forgot I actually wanted to say I got the idea on one of the stores on secretsof.com who has a embroidered cushion - oh so new - named vintage postal cushion. That made me think of preprinted fabric with embroidery on it.

This is not a pattern. It was posted in 2012 by a member that found exactly what she had planned as a project for purchase.

Hi There, Did you do the Protea embroidery on the cushions?

Hi and welcome. If you read below the cushions were already embroidered when purchased. If you are wanting to know if it’s possible to buy such designs put a post here under the Community tab

Walmart currently has this type of printed fabric with writing. However no embroidery on it. Would be easy to embroider designs though.
