how bout a little pillow talk??

round 4 for the pillow talk swap has been a blast!! i received a wonderful partner, new exactly what i wanted to do right away (which can be half the battle some rounds), and it was something other than red and aqua!! hee! hee!! it is fun to break a way from the norm, even if it is for just a bit! ;) at first i wasn't quite sure about the double wedding ring paper piecing, but after sticking to it i'm so glad i did as i LOVE paper piecing, and learning the double wedding ring was really easy! here is my pillow!! i am sad to see it go. i sure hope you love it partner, as much as i do. :)



now to the pillow i received!! i think i'm the luckiest partner, as this is the most AMAZING pillow ever!! the detail and time that corey spent on it to make it just perfect for me was the sweetest!! corey's work is incredible!! THANKS so much for making the the loveliest pillow!! i LOVE it to pieces!!


everything is cheek pinchingly cute- the adorable deer stringing a kite, the cute bunting, the mushroom house with clothes line, the most detailed dandelion, and to top it off the sweet little raccoon!! eek!! each piece is a work of art!!


make sure to take a peek at all the other amazing pillows in the photostream that have been made this round! it is so fun to see what creativity comes from each person!!

    I love the edging on both pillows. It looks easier than piping. or is it piping?? do you have a 'go-to' tutorial for it??

    They're both amazing!!!

    I want one of my own!! it's the perfect pattern to showcase all those beautiful flea market fancy fabrics! your pillow from Corey is fabulous.....I suspected it was for you.....it encompasses all of the things you love, especially the aqua and red combo you adore.

    Two beautiful pillows! Double wedding ring has been on my "someday I'll make that" list for ages - but I never get to it, maybe paperpiecing is the way to deal with all the precise angles and curves.
