My mother and sister are headed downtown to meet me and go over to DeBois Textiles to look for some curtains for my mother’s study. I thought I would collect the pillows that I’ve made and display them, so they could see what I’ve been doing over the past few weeks.

I am really smitten with mixing and matching the different fabrics that I’ve been collecting. Barclay Butera on a pillow with Sister Parish…

I am impressed as hell that you are able to do piping and that it looks so perfectly neat and even.
ReplyDeleteThey look absolutely fantastic Meg! I wish that I knew how to sew.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful job, Meg. I'd choose the Barbara Barry Poetic linen as my fav, although the caftan pillow is a close second.
