All sewn up.

circus girl print cushion

Here we are all finished after a morning of sewing. Not a brilliant photo I’m afraid – it was a drab day in a dull room!

I tried to keep true to the original painting by using the same colour scheme and the red polka dot fabric which was part of the backdrop. The silk is a beautiful shot silk with a red weft and a blue warp making it change colour as the light catches it. Perfect for this red blue colour scheme, lovely to print on but very hard to photograph well!
