Shiner was our first English Setter who taught me the value of "stopping to smell the roses" ... or in her case swimming after a duck, chasing a worn-out frisbee, or hunting down the RIGHT stick thrown in the woods.

We should all enjoy life as much as Shiner did ... so I choose to look through Shiner's View ...

Christmas pillows


The Canada packages had to be mailed before the rest of the pillows were finished ... so I am not going to be able to get the group shot I wanted ... but here are the ones that get mailed tomorrow (the material on the pillow on the left is printed, not pieced).

These were quite fun to make ... at least the first 10 ... there will be a total of 20 when I am finished. Each gift is a pair ... a solid and a print. My inspiration was this photo.
I straight-line quilted the pillow covers over a 14" pillow form.

 


Isn't the little button holding on the bow the cutest ?!?!?


Well ... back to playing "Christmas elf" ... if only I could mail everything on Christmas eve ... I would be all set!

All the best.

  1. Love the pillows! I am making a few pillows too, but only one of them will be a gift. The rest need to replace the sad looking holiday pillows we have been using :)

  2. Cute. I love the ribbons. It's so simple, but adds a lot.
