For the past two weeks my sewing space has been awash with yards of chiffon and crepe de Chine. I’ve been cutting, sewing, gathering, fitting and am steadily making progress on the two bridesmaids dresses I am working on.
All this dressmaking hasn’t left much time for other sewing but I did manage to sneak in one other project.
Some late night piecing and quilting resulted in this:
Enter the scissors and a little creative trimming and I was left with this:
A little more sewing, and some stuffing, and I should hopefully have a cushion/pillow to gift a little girl we know for her 1st birthday.
Needless to say no Work in Progress Wednesday post would be complete without a link up with Lee over at Freshly Pieced so here it is. Hope to see you there.
Love your fabrics!
What a lovely fabrics! A beautiful pillow. Lucky girl.
I am curious about the dresses!
Looks like a stunning dress,very flowy!
I saw this online and it immediately caught my eye! Such happy colors and I love that you aren’t afraid to take a traditional session of sewing and cut it up to make such a fun pillow! Bravo!
that is going to be one adorable E pillow! What a great idea.
I am stopping by from the WIP hop, my post is here if you have time to stop by 🙂 http://domesticdeficitdisorder.blogspot.com/2013/07/wip-july-17th-edition.html
Love the idea of a monogram pillow, and your fabric/colour choices make the E really sing. Great stuff.
cute little pillow! I love your fabric choices on it. So happy and fun and perfect for a little birthday girl!
