I am redecorating my lounge with Laura Ashley Pussy Willow fabric (the pale grey and cream version) and Dulux Egyptian Cotton. Our sofas are grey and curtains are a silvery grey.
I would like to inject a bit of colour into the room, whilst trying to keep a 'country' style theme. Please suggest some cosy cushions that will add colour and texture. I need approx six. I know that if I try to do it, I'll end up with six identical and very boring cushions, which isn't what I'm after! I haven't got a huge budget (but I'm quite handy with a sewing machine, so I'll copycat if I can)!
Can I combine geometric designs with floral? Does it have to be plain? Aarghhhh, I really don't know what will look good! I bought this yellow bobbly cushion cover from Ikea but it doesn't really work - not sure why, perhaps the wrong shade of yellow. Beginning to think yellow is as difficult as grey to find something that's not too green/bright/mustardy
When I bought the wallpaper they had a little bit of the matching fabric, so I bought that to make a cushion or two with to try to bring it all together.
I promise to come back and update with a photo when it's done
