Prefelt Leaf Pillow Cover- Part 2

The trimmed pillow front.

 


After sewing.

 


I love this Klimt-like backing fabric!

 


The finished pillow in situ! :)

 


Since my previous pillow covers had all been relatively flat...

...the only little hiccup, here, was the oval center with its bumpy 'dreadlock' bits.

If you add them to a pillow like this...

...just remember to keep them well in from the edges!

The Moda backing fabric is from a wonderful Amish quilt shop...

...bought during a visit with a lifelong friend. (Happy memories!)

The pillow seems to have found a home on my red Ikea chair...

...and I'm rather happy I saved one for myself, after all! Grin.

Are you planning any special felting projects for your day off!

Thanks, Andrea! Did you drag out that sewing machine, yet? :)
Leann-Yes!! I started Brenda's 'big sister' gift today, and I need to make something for the new baby.
