I'd like a ring cushion - a lovely keepsake for our wedding (we wont have many you see). I'm asking well in advance, but, I've just seen a few whilst looking at wedding bands and I thought i'd ask while I remembered.

So, a ring cushion, with our initials, the date of our wedding etc

Who is up for it?

I could probably make you one of those (I make normal cushions). The initial and date would be in cross-stitch (as I can't embroider!!).

Ah, dizzyday got there first

dizzyday07 · 09/03/2007 17:37

Miaou - feel free to offer your services too. I'm sure the more choice VVVQV has the better

Oh OK dizzyday-thanks!

I've found some nice ones to give you some ideas, vvv:

Royal School of Needlework - Strawberry & Rose pincushion but would work well as ring cushion if initials etc are added

cross stitch cushion

celtic one (maybe a bit pink and frilly?)

loads of really nice silk ones here

another cross stitch one

Any of those tickle your fancy, vvv?

VeniVidiVickiQV · 09/03/2007 21:51

I like the silk ones.

I was looking at these

They are so pretty, but, £64 is v expensive.

BHS do basic ones for £8, but I'd quite like something personal on it, to have as a keepsake.

Sorry took so long but have found it! lovely ring cushions and not expensive!

mommajools · 11/03/2007 12:29

or this one - has 2 hearts but no initials unless you know someone who can embroider them on.

mommajools · 11/03/2007 15:07

These are also nice and silk and custom made - here

mommajools · 12/03/2007 17:55

Did you manage to find one you liked VVVQV?

VeniVidiVickiQV · 12/03/2007 20:43

Oh i like that first one....am definitely wanting burgundy/wine/red as part of my 'theme', such as it is....

Thanks mommajools
