Cushions


Cushions! one of my new years aims was to be more creative with my designing and get more interior projects on the go, This was one of the designs I created late last year, they sold really well, thankfully. Using a screen printing method is great, but a little restrictive at times, so i've created some new designs and plan to use a digital printers, at least then I can use the scraps and create other things with them so there isn't much waste. 

I've also been mooching around Birmingham rag market and the fancy silks store (if i have the money) for lots of nice textures, but I'm still drawn to clean fresh cottons as i'm cautious of over doing it with a
busy pattern.
The little bird image is something i'll be experimenting with, changing the colours to something more muted which will fit in most homes, Plus if i'm using digital I may use the opportunity to be adventurous with colour! 


If you're reading this i'd love to know what you think!
The size of the cushions will probably be around 14 x 14 inches, Perfect or would you prefer bigger/smaller?
Any fabric suggestions? 

Thanks for reading :)
