It started with a cute little dish cloth souvenir we found while on a trip to Thibodaux, LA. When we got home from our trip, I discovered I had a perfectly matching fleur de lis backing fabric.
Don't you just love it when things come together like that?!
And here's my zipper. Okay, here's the truth: I was a little nervous...I haven't put in a zipper in maybe 20 years, plus I was using my new sewing machine, the Babylock Lyric. So, I YouTubed it! If ever in doubt - YouTube :)
I even used my zipper foot! The pillow (and zipper) came out great!
Now for the stuffing!
Adorable! I was going to give as a gift but it's so cute, I might have to keep it!
Wow!!! What a great idea to make a pillow out of the dish cloth! I am so jealous! I love how the backing is so perfect for it. Keep on adding to your blog, you are so good with it! Can't wait to see what's next!😘
