WIP - a cross cushion

 

I wanted a quick fix and we have a few cushions on the sofas that are looking a bit sad.

 

I have been looking at various cross quilts recently and thought I'd have a go at a simple design before I try a wonky one.

 

I will also be trying out some Gutermann Sulky variegated thread that I got recently

 when I do the quilting. I'll keep you posted.

 

And here are just a couple of pictures that I can't keep to myself
 from some gardens we found by chance this weekend. Queen Mary Gardens in Falmouth.
 

 

A stunning bed of Lupins and Artichoke...

 

and some impressive Echiums that must just love the climate here by the sea.
