Pillows




I had bought the fabric to make pillows when I had saw some western style ones, I couldn't get conchos to put on them and had to use wooden buttons, but I was able to find some nice fringe to go with the fabric also. I didn't take a lot of time trying to make them perfect. I decided that my furniture needed some fancy pillows and have had the fabric now for at least a couple of years and finally with the hubby gone over the weekend and not seeing him until next weekend I had enough time on my hands to make them, finally and here you are. I didn't do to bad for being an amature ! Did I ever tell you that I hate to sew or at least I used too!

Hope you all have a good afternoon.

I really like those pillows - I would have thought they came with the sofa if you had not told me!

Good job on the pillows. Nice mixture of both masculine and feminine qualities to them. Sure to please the whole household! You can do just about anything you set your mind too, can't you.

Catching up on the rest of your posts, I decided that I should stop reading your blog until springtime up there. I get so cold just looking at the pictures. They are that good!

(I won't really stop reading. LOL!)
