My best friend, Stephanie, and I are doing a Pillow Cover Exchange every month this year. Before she moved over the Rocky Mountains to Colorado, we used to sew together all the time. Since we can't really do that anymore, we thought it would be fun to exchange a sewing project every month and since both really enjoy having seasonal pillow covers it was the perfect thing to exchange. Our theme for January is Winter and Snow. Here is what I came up with to make for Stephanie.
She said she really liked my September Pillow so I started her pillow the same way. I used my machine to embroider a couple of snowflakes, one on gray cotton and on dark blue felt. I used the letter stitch on my machine to stitch out her favorite Winter related poem. I also added scraps of a super soft white fleece because she adores "touch me" fabrics.
Very pretty! I really like the snowflakes. Adding is scraps of fleece is super smart. I love stuff with different textures.
