My friend Rachel has been wanting to paint it and in the end asked me to do it. I agree about the colours - so many, so little time! LOL. I think this would also look fabulous in peacock blue or aqua. a real statement.<br />yes pulling out the stamens on lilies definitely makes them bearable.<br />cheers FionaFiona, Lilyfield Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12051970432044610864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898359052933678205.post-81451752584623152402013-04-09T17:01:59.622+10:002013-04-09T17:01:59.622+10:00thanks Von, a friend gave me metrs of the pink vel...thanks Von, a friend gave me metrs of the pink velvet and i've been meaning to make one of these ruffle cushions with it for a while. so pleased with how it turned out.Fiona, Lilyfield Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12051970432044610864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898359052933678205.post-77893718804746982002013-04-09T17:01:16.573+10:002013-04-09T17:01:16.573+10:00it's looking good, I hope my friend will be ha...it's looking good, I hope my friend will be happy with it.

White or something marvellous - so many colours, so little time! Also, I will remember that hint about removing the stamens hence removing the smell! I never buy those lilies because of the smell - so now I know what to do!!!
