I made this cushion this afternoon while my poorly, wee daughter slept.(She has mouth ulcers and is teething. Poor little love.)
The cushion is made from an old linen tea towel with a cord panel on the front and some beautiful cotton found in an op-shop on the back. It's big, fruity and light. This baby is going to be part of my stock for the inaugural Mrs Smith stall at the Civic Homespun Market on the 12th September. I am sharing a stall with the wonderful Annie from Red Bamboo and her beautiful candles and unguents. Come and see us and say " Hi!", if you are in town. Loz and Dinny will be there too. It'll be a hoot!
And this is the view from my bedroom window today. I do so love the magnolias.
Oh ... and we have sorted out some cash for the family trip to France. No departure date confirmed yet, but we are getting there.

Blimey! Congratulations on all three fronts (not the bit about the poor wee teething one with mouth ulcers. Maybe wait til those are a distant memory before climbing on a plane for that particular long haul flight delight)...
Oh I love the title of your post and the cushion is very nice indeed. Good luck with your stall!! Bon soir.
