These past few days I've been enjoying the sunny spring weather and a little bit of sewing!! Combine those two and you can't get much better than that!!
After sending my Miss Dandy mini off I decided I really wanted to sew up some of my favorite swap pieces that I've sent off and have missed dearly!! I decided to do the double hourglass as that was the first one I had done for the Doll Quilt Swap quite some time ago. This time I made the double hourglass from the new Flower Sugar in red and aqua, and made it into a pillow!! It sure looks pretty sitting in all its glory on my armchair!! Hopefully in the up coming weeks I can wip up some of my other favorites I've made for swaps so I can enjoy them too. :)

Are you also enjoying the first week of Spring? I'd love to hear what you've been enjoying this week!! :)
It was 70 out one day last week which was fantastic! ...and then we just got some snow today mixed with rain and yuck... no fun :(
ReplyDeleteps. gorgeous pillow! I just got some aqua and red charm packs, might copy your idea a bit - love the binding/piping especially!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I have been seeing a lot of pillows out in blog land lately and have decided that I must make some! It was starting to feel spring but yesterday we had our usualy March/April blizzard in Southern Ontario and it will be a few more weeks until the deck is clear enough again to BBQ!
