Spring Fling Pillow

This is my entry for the Blogger's Pillow Party:






Sweet Hummingbirds fly on the back.
I made an envelope closure so we can wash it plenty.






I struggled for a long time with this entry, due to the fact I am infatuated with rainbows right now. The colors --or "colours" as they spell it here in Britain, draw me in.

In the end, I decided to use some fabric I've had for a while, a good use I think...
The poms are dear to me, I just love them. Aren't they sweet?

:o)






Inspiration abounds here in the Spring:

They all amaze me.
Wish I could quilt!

  5. Beautiful pillow. My Nana once made curtains for my Mom using pom-pom trim. Miles and miles of beautiful pom-poms. I loved them. Adding a bit of fancy trim is worth the time and effort and adds so much to the design! Cheers! Evelyn

  8. GlebeSquatters--this is Amy Butler fabric on the front and I think Free Spirit on the back...have you tried fabric.com? They ship internationally I'm pretty sure. :o)
