The wonderful thing about having multiple projects going at once is that you can (almost always) find something to finish in a short time frame. We had company over for most of the holiday weekend, but I did find a few minutes to finish up this pillow cover anyway. It's made from denim and tiny scraps that I just couldn't bear to part with. I love how it turned out!!!!
I used
an envelope backing, so the cover is removable and washable. Envelope backings are so easy! I like to make
my own pillow forms so that they are filled to my liking. I
might be a little particular about my pillows. Hahaha! The pillow cover and the pillow form are both about 24" square. This is scrap project #187!
(The backing is
good neighbors fabric, which happens to be on sale! :))
I had a few leftovers after making the pillow top, so I turned them into a
thread catcher! It was better than throwing the leftovers away, or finding a place to store them. This is scrap project #188!
I do love a good two-for-one project, don't you?
Happy Monday to you!
LOVE that you used denim in your Scrap Pillow AND used the leftovers, as well. Two AWESOME projects!!!
ReplyDeleteI love them both!!! And how fun to add denim to your project ;) I just love those happy rainbows of color ;)
ReplyDeleteThese are such cute projects! Love them both.
ReplyDeleteYour strips of color are delicious! It looks like a good leader/ender project!
ReplyDeleteOh wow - you are a master of turning your scraps into gorgeous projects. Love your pillow and thread catcher!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cool!! Love those pillow and thread catcher, though I maybe use it to organize my lotion tubes on the dressing table :D
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your blog! I love that you use so many scraps for projects and I especially like that you don't have too many sponsored and affiliated posts. I have unfollowed several blogs recently and I'm taking an Instagram break as well. I just got overwhelmed and uninspired by constantly being a target audience for people to push products. You have a very nice balance on your blog, which I really appreciate.
ReplyDeleteLove your projects!
ReplyDeleteThose are so cute! maybe the thread catcher and the pillow could go together as a gift. You could toss jewelry and trinkets in the bag before laying your head down.
ReplyDeleteYou're so clever with your scraps! Both projects are so cute, and a two-fer is the best!
ReplyDeleteLove this! The denim makes the colours seem so much more vibrant.
ReplyDeleteWow I absolutely love it. So fantastic
