Here are my first cushion designs:
Safari Collection
Safari, Tiger - red chalk drawing, digital print on organic cotton sateen
Safari, Elephant - pencil drawing, digital print on organic cotton sateen
Having studied a short course in Interior Design, I realised that my own drawings could be put into a context that would create decorative and useful soft furnishings, for example, cushions.
By developing my own patterns, I want to create an attractive collection of fabrics; these will eventually display my stitching work as well, which will make each cushion a unique piece.
Cushions are a wonderful way to showcase ideas and give a taste of how an environment can be changed into something more sophisticated and personalised.
A label called 'LAZY & COSY' (by Veronica Mulas) will give the collection a sense of fun, warmth, informality and accessibility; this name, however, will be a synonym of quality of materials and artistic input.
As well as a Safari Collection illustrating animals in the wild, there will be a Countryside Collection, which will illustrates butterflies, birds and animals from the countryside. In the future I will also use my drawings of cup cakes and other delicious and good looking things, to make a kitchen space or an open plan area more fun.
