“Coup de Soleil” N° KS-002
"Intuitions" Range / Theme Nature The Discovery Kit's second guinea pig. A small graphic picture in red, orange, yellow and green, which shows what you get with the kit.
Its story
This one is the Discovery Kit's second guinea pig. Like the puffin, it helped me test the kit before its launch, and show what the result looks like when you make it.
For the pattern, I'm sticking with very tight framing: the flower spills over the edges of the picture, all you keep is its heart and petals. I find it gives something very modern. And for a kit, it's handy: no overly fine details to complicate things.
For the fabrics, offcuts as always. The red petals are a coated, iridescent linen canvas, from cushion covers I had already used for the Marie and Spare “Cerise Hespéridée” bags (still available), and for the lining of a purse. The orange petals, a satin bought from a workshop that closed down. And for the heart and the background, two 100% cotton poplins, offcuts too.
The result is full of sunshine, for someone who loves flowers, but not the twee kind. Or to bring a little sunburst to a corner that needs one 😉
And if it's the flower that caught your eye: it's in the Discovery Kit (instructions in French), under the name Cosmos. Your fabrics won't necessarily be exactly the same as mine, but the pattern will.
