Default An experimental cushion

I tried using wax crayons for the first time and was quite pleased how it came out so I think I will do it again in the future. I just need to perfect my colouring technique haha!

I think it looks very nice; need to try that myself. Do you just color it with a crayon and then heat set with iron?

Sash - yes I coloured it all in white crayon and then coloured in over the top. I need more colours really to get better chasing etc but not bad for a first attempt. Heat set with an iron and then ready to embroider!
