You know that Sissy Dunnit is Stephanie over at Luscious Life Studios right? And she's a designer and a clever clogs and all round good egg, right? Well, she had some some of her designs committed to fabric just before Christmas. And then, after a holiday in Australia, Hawaii and England, just to prove she's no slouch, she made these cushions up from her designs. You'll recognise Lily (at the front) because the original design was bragged about on this blog. See, Steph took my advice and made a brightly coloured version of it. It's a beauty aint it, all bright colours and polka dots and you know, it speaks vividly of the fun in my sissy's character. Actually, so did the original, paler, more grown up colour way. You couldn't help but be cheered by these two patterns, huh.
You know how it is, my advice amounted to a kerjillion emails worth of going on and on and on about loving turquoise and lime, so she changed it to shut me up. Works for me. And now it's a fabric...wow, works for her too. And won't it be amazing when it's a paper or a digi? Makes me giddy thinking about it. When I grow up, I'm gonna be just like my big Sister.
Very cool pillows! Yep, turquoise and about any color really work!!! I'll have to go over to your sister's site and check it out!

ReplyDeleteVery fresh, funky and uber lovely. I'm surprised you haven't got Jan running up some numbers! You could scan the cushion, print it off and run up another calender!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, terrific Julia! Must run in the family - off to see you sister's site now :) Di xx
ReplyDeleteFab fabric!! Aren't we lucky having such talented sisters!! Maybe we will be as clever as them one day!! lol. x Jo
ReplyDeleteWhat a talented family Julia. Love those bright colours, just what we need to make us smile on dull January days. Almost enough to make me take up sewing, and I hate sewing.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, very fruity colours!
ReplyDeleteI know someone who will love these fabrics and was about to point her to the website and it is taking so many hits, I can't get it. So you've made your sister terrifically popular which makes you a jolly good egg of a sister, doesn't it Ms Dunnit?
ReplyDeleteWow groovy stuff indeed!! No wonder you are proud! I'm sure she is equally proud of you xx
