Stamped fabric diy cushions

I worked for several hours on this one cushion making the piping and then sewing it together, so I wanted to make something that would coordinate, but that wouldn’t take forever to make. I am trying to bring more navy blue into my living room.

Yesterday as I was making stuffed peppers, I noticed that the shape of the peppers were quite lovely.

I finally managed some time today to make two more cushion covers to coordinate with my new cushion, and I made it with the pepper! It was like I was back in grade 1 :)

I mixed 2 parts paint to 1 part fabric medium and brushed it on. I wasn’t careful with the placement as I thought it should look organic.

Not too shabby.

    That did make a neat pattern!! I've always thought that the end of a bunch of celery is really pretty too! Great job Mel!

    Love, LoVe, Love, this idea! We have used a potatoe, cut a design in it and stamped away, but a pepper...very clever!
