Thinking Soft



I am having a really good time making pillow covers (when I have time). It's a different way to play with fabric combinations to create a mood, and gets my mind working in new ways. Yesterday, I purchased a small selection of plain colored cottons in hopes of making more pillows in combination with coordinating prints. These sumptuous colors rock my world!








And this pillow is one that was made by special request for my dear friend, Sam. I liked it so much that I made another for my Artfire and Etsy shop.

I adore what you are doing... the fabrics and style of your pillows evoke a comfortable, easy going grace and beauty. You have a great eye and sense of style!

I love your pillows! It's so awesome to see you making them. :) I think they are heaps of fun to play with - kind of like assembling canvases really. Their flatness lends perfectly for all manner of things. :) xo

Thanks, you three! I love the pillow as a "canvas." I want to do some with a bunch of hand stitching on them, but I need to have a little more time!
