pretty petal pocket pillow & old new 30's has arrived!!

Today has been such a lovely day already!!  It is a beautiful spring day with the sun shining!!  We've been having the most delightful spring weather and it sure makes me happy!!  This morning I was able to finish up a pillow I started last week, Nova's Petal Pocket Pillow!  I bought the pattern when she first came out with it and have had it on my list since.  I'm so happy to have it done, and of course it is the perfect Spring pillow to go along with all the lovely days we've been having!!  :)



The cute little mushroom softies I made a few years ago so had to test out the pocket.  On my list is to make some new little felt softies.  Hopefully this week.  :)


I received a fun little package last week for my stash of some reproduction prints so I had fun using some of these.  Aren't they pretty!?!

 
 

Then right after I finished taking some pictures of the pillow, guess what arrived?!?  Yep, Leciens Old New 30's!!  Oh, that made my already lovely day into a fabulously fantastic day!!   The fabrics are all gorgeous and it is so fun to see them on bolts!!  

I've made them into bundles, and since there has been so much anticipation for this collection I'm going to keep them in the bundles for now and not do yardage so I have plenty to go around (unless otherwise discussed previously).  :)

Mini Flowers


Deers in a Meadow


Tulip Bouquets


Floral Hearts


Petite Rose Buds and Pin Dots


Spring Meadow


Strawberries and Cherries with Polka Dots


Aren't they so pretty!!  There are 3 different fabric weights in the collection with some of them being 100% cotton and then some of them are a linen cotton blend.  I just love all of them!!   They will be popping up in my shop as bundles today!  :)

Hope you are having a fabulous Spring day too!!

    what a lovely version of Nova's pillow and I think your repro fabrics are so suited to it! Could you share where you got them? I am keeping an eye on your shop for the Old New!
