Thanks Sherry. I loved doing her.

How cute Di. What did you use to colour Dora ?

Dee in Oz

Hi Dee, Water colour pencil, then I used a soft but firm watercolour brush to paint with water only. Each section was coloured in, painted then ironed. When all the colouring in had been done, I then put a sealer on it. I also washed it in cold water to see if it would run and it didn't. I ironed it while wet as well - all the iron was done in between two sheets of white paper to protect the ironboard cover.

Hope my niece doesn't wash in hot water though.

Send me your phone number and I will ring you.

Cheers,

Oh, that's sweet! :)

I'm sure she'' love it.

Your Dora is adorable. How did you accomplish the raised edge on the edges? Did you couch or is that a seriously heavy thread or what? It looks just wonderful. Polly

Di,

What kind of sealer do you put on it?

You can always > Hi Dee,

Too cute! Your niece is going to love it!

That is so cute! She will love it.

That's adorable, Di! You did a great job on it. :) I just know it will be a beloved cushion for this little one.

Thanks Polly,

I used two strands of embroidery thread for the outline of Dora, three strands - two orange and one yellow - for the flowers and a dark and light brown for the hair. I did French knots for the pupils and the stamens of the flowers.

It feels really great to rub your hand over it and I thought Zoe would as well.

Cheers,

Hi Bev,

I used folkart Textile Medium "Plain" 794. I used a flat brush to put it on with. It's the one usually mixed with folkart paint, only I brushed it on.

Cheers,

Thanks Kate - I am too.

Thanks Louise.

Thanks Donna.

Thanks Sandy.

I hope to get the cushion part made today.

Sorry, that should read Plaid not Plain.

Adorable! :-)
