These pillows werw made form a vintage tablecloth that I found. It had some stains and holes and I decided to rework it into some pillows.

Christmas Pillow Teaser....

I have been working like crazy on holiday pillows and other soft decorations. Here is a quick teaser, more to come I promise!

More Christmas Pillows

Here are a few more Christmas pillows.

This is the back.

This one os a bolster.

Red and Black Bedding

My favorite color is red, so when I saw this fabric I immediately fell in love. This was really a fun job to do.

This is a close up of the duster.

We loaded the bed with pillows. There are two queen shams, three boxed euro shams, one headboard pillow, two square pillows and a small kidney pillow and a boxed round pillow (not shown in this photo). 

All of the pillows are reversible so the client is able to change up the look. Here is a look at the revese look. The boxed round pillow is in this photo.

Here is a close-up of the square pillows. I love how these truned out.

This kidney pillow is really cute too!

Pink and Cream Bedding

I love how the bedding turned out on this job. All of the fabrics worked well together.

This is a close up of the duster. It is gathered and has a 2" contrast band at the hem.

There are three euro shams, two king size shams, and a kidney pillow at the head of the bed. 

Front View

The Euro shams have a 3" ruffle and small 1/4" contrast welt between the ruffle and the body.

The pieced kidney pillow is reversible so that the client can change the look if she wants to.  This is a view of one side.

 

 

This is a view of the other side.

This pieced kindey is in a side chair. 

Lovebug

I love "lovebugs" and I really love this little pillow.
 

Happy Friday! :)

Dining Room Linens and Pineapples

This client wanted to change up her dinning room a bit so we re-covered her chair seat cushions, made some comfy kidney pillows for the head chairs, and added a custom table runner.

We decided to use some of the same fabrics and trims in the dining room linens as we did for the living room pillows and throws. It is one large room divided into two separate spaces  and using some of the same elements helped to bring continuity to the large space. 

 

Did you know that the pineapple is a symbol of hospitality? In the18th century, in the south, a pineapple was placed on the dining room table when guests arrived. It would sit in the same place for their entire visit. In those days travel could be extremely difficult and it took long periods of time to get anywhere, so when you had guests they stayed for long periods of time. When the family was ready for their guests to leave they would remove the pineapple from the table and place it on the guests bed. That was a polite sign to the guest that the host family was ready for them to go.

Have a great day!

Happy Fall Y'all!

I have a friend who makes the most beautiful cross stitch flats. Since fall is my favorite season, I asked her to make me a few with a fall theme. This is what I did with them.

This my favorite one.

This is a close-up of the corner detail.

 The back is a burn orange suede.

Here are a few of the smaller ones.
