My project to make<br />
SUNRISE CUSHION<br />
This cushion cover is an abstract sunrise design. I love<br />
the simplicity of the stained glass effect and how eye<br />
catching it is. I wanted to try and replicate this in the<br />
design whilst combining the positivity of a sunrise. At<br />
different orientations it doesn’t look like a sunrise and<br />
I like how it could be open to interpretation or simply<br />
seen as a geometric design.<br />
It was great to experiment with Anchor Tapisserie<br />
Wool, which I haven’t used before. I don’t normally work<br />
with such a bright colour palette so it was fun to push<br />
myself out of my comfort zone with the colours I chose.<br />
This is the first time I’ve used an Anchor product – the<br />
tapestry wool worked really well. I was worried that<br />
the skeins would disappear rather quickly but they<br />
went quite far.<br />
