"Oh Deer" pillow


Hi friends, I hope you are all well today. I just looked over my last post, I guess I was feeling a little discouraged. Sorry about that. Today is a better day. Yesterday I finished up the slipcover for the cabin couch and the curtains for the kitchen, which left me free today to work on this darling pillow. I found this fabric a couple months ago at a local antique shop...I just fell in love with it! I wish I could find a whole bolt of it...it is so vibrant and sweet. Don't you just love the graphics and colors on the vintage fabrics?! It was only a small piece, just one panel about 16" x 25", so I was having a hard time deciding what I wanted to do with it. I decided on a pillow. I finished it off with some old fashioned looking cotton fringe and even hand stitched on some vintage gold colored rick rack to the back. It can be purchased from my Etsy shop, stop on by...and don't forget to visit the other fine sellers there! Thanks.

You don't have to feel discouraged, we all go through that. I've been doing it myself lately. Maybe it's just summer blues.

I like the way this turned out. And, yes, I love vintage prints, you can't get anything like that now. Very cool and glad to see you're still doing what you love.

Pinky...you are a real sweetheart! Let's hope we can snap out of these blues ASAP. It does help to get a little sympathy once in a while, so I thank you for that...and I send some back to you. smiles! :-}
