It's done, It's done!!
(and even more miraculously, it's been
sewn up, ready to put onto the pillow).
But it won't be today - it's snowing!!
Here are some closeups....
You can click to embiggen the pictures if you'd like.
That should finish my series
of pillow covers (unless I decide
to do one for Halloween!).
Perhaps tomorrow I will roust out pictures of the
entire series so you can see them all together.
Another little tidbit found in my mother's collection...
If you plant for a year - plant grain.
If you plant for a century - plant trees.
If you plant for eternity - plant ideas.
So many details and so much to look at! Delightful!
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite bit is still that little glimpse of a forested chasm :)
Love it. your work is inspiring to me. Yes please show the others that will be interchanged with this one. I'm so anxiously awaiting my magazine. I wish there was someone locally here that enjoyed the crazy quilting. It would be nice to have someone to bounce ideas off of and encourage each other. Oh well, it is what it is. Congratulations on a lovely finish.

A perfect Summer Pillow on a Spring Snowing Day. Lovely Summer scene and all the details really make this special. It is very cold and windy here too and no sunshine! Oh for the warmth of Summer. Ideas to last a lifetime and beyond...very wise words.
ReplyDeleteI love the gulls and the puppy! I love the whole thing actually.
ReplyDeleteI love every stitch!! It makes such a pretty summer picture!
ReplyDeleteSnowing? I thought you were kidding. So sorry you got snow...just don't look out the window..look at your pillow!
