So I've got the cushion for the coiled put done, but now I wonder, should I stain the wooden base before varnishing it?

Another shot of the #ClumpOfViolets , just because I'm so happy with them!

Rejoice, rejoice!
Violets now cascading over the edge of the pot! There are a lot of stitches holding them down so that they cling and follow the shape, and I do think it works.

I've spent the morning working on the violets, inserting them in their new fabric, and beginning to contrive the cascade. One of the leaves has winkled itself out of the fabric, so I'm pausing to regain calm and temper!

Tea-dyeing a coiled cord pot ranks quite highly in the list of Amarna-related adventures I Did Not See Coming!
