Hey Everyone, I took a short hiatus from the blog to work on some projects but I am back now. Been also doing a bit of mending lately and decided to fix up my pillows I made for Christmas for my family a couple years go. The little tassels had fallen off and were lost around the house so I had a bit of fun tracking them down and sewing them on again – a little more securely this time. The pillows are made using a beautiful multi-coloured dupioni silk that changes from a blue-gold to a green-gold depending on the light. I found an inexpensive trim from the fabric section at Wal-mart where I was also surprised to find an interesting assortment of tassels and a fun turquoise faux fur trim. The image was created using fabric transfer printer paper which you can purchase at most art or office supply stores. Illustration by Edmund Dulac .
