Inverted Silhouette Bird Cushion.

[ldhenson]

Ever since I made my first cushion like this, I've continued playing around with the idea of inverted silhouettes.

So here's my latest:



The front side.



Closeups of some of the appliques.






And the reverse side, in softer colors.



Closeup of the reverse side.


The two sides have very similar, but not identical, bird designs.

I'm pretty pleased how it came out, and it made Hot New Projects at Craftster, which is nice! Plus, I can choose which color scheme to display depending on whether I put the cushion on the sofa or bed.

I hope you gave it another look, the photos have been visible to me the whole time. Possibly just Photobucket being temporarily down. The second side is done in shades of light pink, light brown, and ivory.
