With encouragement from all of you and especially Natalia. I finally
finished this piece of petit point.
This design was supposed to be for a fire screen but I knew the moment I saw it, it was just what I needed for the bed I made. I wanted it compliment the wallpaper also. The back of the pillow is finished with a soft gold (antique) silk fabric. I made a black twisted cord to finish the edge with.
Oh Catherine the pillow is spectacular! How...wow.... And the setting you have created is perfect in every way from the wallpaper to the accessories, just gorgeous :)

ReplyDeleteThank you. I have another one I want to stitch but thankfully it isn't as big as that one.
ReplyDeleteYour finished cushion is the perfect compliment to your bedroom scene Catherine! I love the black background of the cushion and the delicacy of the twining ribbon and pink roses. Your talents are Amazing, not only in your needlework skills but also when it comes to interior design. The pink, black and gold color scheme looks feminine and Very pretty. Everything looks balanced and harmonious without looking stiff and/or contrived.

ReplyDeleteYou always leave me such lovely and eloquent comments. Thank you so much!
I have tried to find your email address. Perhaps I have never had it or you have never published it. I think you live in Canada. Am I right about that?
Yes, on the west coast in a suburb of Vancouver.
