Really? November already? Where has the time gone? I have not been blogging much due to the fact that I have not been sewing much. October has come and gone and aside from some Halloween costumes, I've barely gotten any sewing done. Hence the blog hiatus.
So you probably don't know that the Pillow talk Swap was on again, and today was actually our mailing deadline. This pillow has been a month or more in progress but it’s finally done and off to it’s new home. I hope you like it partner! It's kind of anthro-inspired. I had fun making it and I even got to try some creative paper piecing, a little hand embroidery (ok haven't done that in years)
EDITED 12/7
By now my partner John, QuiltDad has received his pillow and he likes foxes which is why I chose that theme. I used Sonja's (Artisania) paper pieced fox pattern to make the fox on the back of the pillow. You can find her patterns here.
This is just fabulous! Lucky partner!

ReplyDeleteI love your pillows! I'm in the middle of making a quilt that is very similar.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone else wants to make a fox, the pattern is found on Artisania's site: http://artisania.wordpress.com/pattern-shop-2/lil-fox-8-x-10-woodland-quilt-pattern/
