 We spent quite a bit of time... |
 ...learning the different stitches we would need... |
 ..to sew our cushions. |
 Firstly we used a running stitch to.. |
 ..neaten up each end of the dyed fabric. |
 We then had to work with our design .. |
 ..inside out and use a .. |
 ..strong back stitch to create .. |
 ..the cushion envelope. |
 Then to finish it off.. |
 ..and if we were feeling.. |
 stoic, we stitched all around the finished cushion.. |
 ..to make it look really professional. |
 Our designs ranged from scorpions.. |
 ..to tropical sea scapes.. |
 ..waterfalls.. |
 ..to tropical flwers.. |
 ..and frogs.. |
 ..sunsets.. |
 ..to lily pads.. |
 ..buried treasure.. |
 ..to sunrises.. |
 ..azure seas and |
 ..magenta bouganvilliea.. |
 ..island paradises.. |
 ..tropical splendour. |
 Wouldn't we like to be there on these cold winter days! |
