Mrs Siddons Tea Towel Cushion



This morning I made a cushion cover out of a secondhand tea towel I bought from a market. I just love how it sits on our sofa, resplendent in all its colourful glory.


The image on the tea towel is based on a painting by Thomas Gainsborough of Mrs Sarah Siddons, a Welsh actress of the 1700's.


The original painting :-)

  2. Thanks Deb, I love that lamp too - it was given to me by my dance students when I "retired"!
