Custom Pilllows

I had a sweet neighbor Facebook that she wanted some pillows made and of course I jumped on it!  I think they turned out great!  I love the fabric choice.

I think they look good on my couch Julie! :)

Here is an up close on the hidden zipper.  This will make it much easier for Julie to clean the pillowcases.

And a business card attached to each pillow in the corner. I just love those cute little cards!

Thanks so much Julie!

Stephanie's Quilt Pillow

I've been waiting to post this until Stephanie received it as I didn't want to ruin the surprise!  She washed her grandmother's quilt and it was ruined beyond repair.  She asked me to do something with it and this is what I came up with for her.

I took 4 of the quilt blocks from the quilt and put them together.  I picked the ones without any major damage.  I also found a teeny, tiny blue flower print to use for the back.  I once again did an envelope design.

Envelope Pillows

My couch needed some new pillows but I wanted something that I could wash when they got dirty.  This is what I came up with.

What I like best is the back.  Both pieces of fabric overlap and makes an envelope design.  This make the pillowcase removable for easy cleaning!

In the above picture you can see that I have opened up the "envelope" to show the pillow form inside.

Fabric Bookmarks

My sweet husband who is an avid reader requested some fabric bookmarks.  Lots of sports themed ones for my husband and one little penguin one for me :)

Happy Fourth of July Cake

Dr. Seuss on the Loose Quilt

I had a very good friend talk me into buying this  Dr. Seuss Kit from Linderella's Quilt Works.  I had wanted it for so long, but couldn't justify buying it.  Thanks to a 20% off coupon, I was able to get it without feeling so guilty!  So this week, I put my mind to it and finished the top!  I am waiting until I take a stippling class next week to quilt it.

I love it!  I can't wait to pick out the backing fabric and get this cutie completely finished!

I plan to hang it in my 1st grade classroom or in my sewing studio.
