I love peonies.
Lucky for me, I have two bushes of double pink ones in my garden.
But I cut most of my blooms and enjoy them inside.
I needed a mat for this cut glass vase,
so inspired by Lori Kennedy at the Inbox Jaunt
and some Kaffe fabrics I won,
I made a little peony mat.
It features Lori's all over pretty posy design
on a Kona green (not sure of the name)
I backed it with this Kaffe print -- sorry, my half metre
didn't have all the selvage information--
and used the same fabric for binding.
It measures 12 inches square.
Now I can enjoy peony season in style!

I adore peonies too! your display is so lovely - I wish I could smell the blooms.
I have the same double pink peonies in my garden and they are absolutely stunning. Like you, I cut the blooms and enjoy them for as long as I can.
Lovely - the flowers AND your mat. I miss my former state's peonies -this state is too hot for them.
Beautiful work! Thanks for posting.
and you can use the back as the front when the peonies are no longer.
Brilliant.
Hugs
