Fire & Ice Pillow {a finished project}

IMG_8146

It has been over a month since my last blog post!  My December was one bout of sickness followed by another, so I am ready to go overboard on Valentine’s Day decorating to make up for a lousy Christmas!  I have a guest post tutorial for this improv cross pillow over at Forth Worth Fabric Studio Blog today.  Check it out!

There was some leftover fabric which I turned into a heart pillow.  Now my living room is officially ready for Valentine’s Day!

The fabrics are a variety of reds and aquas paired with unbleached Moda linen.  I love the look of quilting fabric and linen together.  No binding again…I really do like my serger!

Thanks for visiting!  Have a wonderful day!

    Very pretty. Like you, I love the look of the linen and cotton together. I hope that the sickness is now finished for the rest of this year. It was a bad December for you.

    You are becoming the pillow queen! I really love them all, I think my fav is the heart one! hahaha, so unlike me to favor the heart - maybe it's because you were talking about Valentine's Day.
