"LOVE" cushions

I finally made my own (presentable) "LOVE" cushions (or "VELO" as H is calling them, which is apparently french for 'bike'). I saw these in Real Living magazine last year. Upon seeing the price (RRP $70 each) I decided I would make myself some. After mum's tuition in fabric cutting and 'how to', I'm really proud of how they finished up.
I also went thrifting today and picked up the pink lamp base in the picture for $3 and then went to Target and bought a shade. All in all it has been an enjoyable 'creative' day.

Love the cushions!! I really should have a go at making some, considering that I did buy myself a new sew machine and have yet to use it...... One day!!
Nice to see you crafting again
