This pillow was made with burlap fabric and I sewed on the Paris
sign with an image from Graphics Fairy. The trim is a gathered ribbon with a tulle border.
This sweet pillow is sumptuous silk
with my current favorite design,
lots of rosettes!
If I stay in tomorrow, I'll probably make a few more. I have a hard time sittin still!
Are you creative types the same way??

I wish I was creative, but afraid I will have leave that to others. At least while you were confined at home, you were able to do something very pretty. During mine last week, due to huge snow, I had no power. Not a lot you can do under those conditions. Thank you for feeling like stopping by for a little visit today.
gorgeous...sometimes (just sometimes) colds can be a blessing :) (in disguise)
I saved that graphic too for when I make another batch of pillow covers! I RELALY like your PINK pillow, Sissie, it's so luscious!!
((Hugs))

Beautiful, Sissie! I also saved that graphic for some future project, although I'm not sure what yet. I do find that I get antsy and I'll usually do something quick and easy. At least I feel like I've done something!
Ah Sissie ..they are Great ..both pillows !!! Yes I do have a hard time sitting still no matter how bad I feel ..in fact most people can't understand why I never quit or don't take a day off... I guess it's just in my blood to always be busy creating. We just finished up some new Garden ditty bags we posted in our Etsy shop ..you'll have to stop in and see them.
our seller name is sweetmagnoliasfarm.
Hope you feel better soon and keep up the Beautiful Work ..

Sissie,
STOP!!! You are making me obsessed with looking at your blog! That pillow is the BEST thing ever. Do you sell them? I want to buy one just like that if you do. I love Love LOVE it. Lisa
They are really beautiful!!
That is a great graphic from graphics fairy,it makes a great looking pillow
love how your pillows turned out, very pretty!
I LOVE that pink pillow!!
Those pillows are gorgeous! I love the burlap one. Are you putting these in your Etsy shop? I heart creative types. LOL!
Oh Sissie,
I am sorry you are under the weather! I love those pillowsand glad you changed your backgournd back. It is so pretty with all your lovies.
I told one of friends it was a curse to be creative. I feel I am polluting or leaving fat foot prints on Mother Earth. She said it kept my mind fresh instead of senility ! Of course I just had to call her ‘cause I could not remember the whole conversation! Hope this gave you a small chuckle. Take your vitamins and drink lots of OJ!
Smiles, alice
Very precious Sissy girl! I do hope you feel better soon. By the way, does Graphics Fairy also tell how to transfer the image to fabric? I would love to give it a try, but don't know how! Take care, marcia
wow...when I'M under the weather...i lie on the couch and watch really bad TV all day! oh my...you're an inspiration and your pillows are tres,tres,beau!!! will you be listing them in the shop? warmly, ~*~*~*~michelle~*~*~*~

Hi Sissie,
Your pillows and your roses are just gorgeous..
How very talented you are. Sure hope you get to feeling better soon..
very pretty...nicely done

ciao
Sissie, your pillows are just lovely. I only wish I was creative in that way. The only thing creative about me is my brain. It is always thinking and on the move. My physical body just kind of sits and lets the brain do the work,hehe. Great Job!!KATHYSUE
Oh Sissie, your pillows are getting more and more beautiful! I've loved every single one you have shown us! But this one with it's Parisian flair and ruffles is just perfect! Will it be going to your Etsy store by chance?!?! I think I'll hop over there right now and see!

I used to be busier on crafts more before my illness....but I do still like to work on them some. I haven't sewn in years and I would love to because I just love all the beautiful pillows I see people make. Thanks for seeing my packages...I will show on Thursday what they are...pass birthday greetings to your beautiful sister.
thank you too for your concern on my health...it is a battle and a rough one, but every day is a gift...and I am going to live each one that I get as best I can...I don't know what else I can do!!!
Have a great week. I hope you soon feel better and have fun making more wonderful pillows....
Your pillows are so pretty!!! Hope you get to feeling better soon.

Pretty pretty! For someone who doesn't feel well, you surely are productive! Hope you get well soon!
BEAUTIFUL pillows ♥♥ I am in love with the roses one but the first one is awesome too ♥♥
Your pillows are divine!
When I'm feeling creative, I clean or organize something. I know - boring, but I'm not artistic.
Hi dear Sissie,
Your burlap pillow, is wonderfull ,I love the trim you made,makes it so very romantic and fragile to look at.
and the rose pillow, oh my fits the sleepingroom of a queen.
Hope you are soon well again, and wishing you a wonderfull creative wednesday.

Oh Sissie! Both pillows are gorgeous, but I'm LOVING the one with the rosettes! VERY pretty and pink, and perfectly girl-ish! Beautiful work!... Hope you're feeling better soon! ((hugs)) ~tina
Bonjour Sissie,
My goodness, you created these luscious pillow when you were sick? What will you make when you feeling fine, You are so talented, they are beautiful.
I do hope you are feeling better very soon!
Take care Sissie!
Two very different but equally gorgeous pillows!
Good Morning Sweetie...
I am so sorry to hear you are not feeling well. I am here now with a box of my favorite tissues, some chicken noodle soup, and a warm fuzzy teddy bear. Do you feel better now? I hope so.
Beautiful post, love the pillows, especially the pink one. So beautiful, love the rosettes. Such an element of surprise in a room it will be.
Before I forget you must go by and visit Spencer at Bellamere Cottage. She has something that she just finished that is going to make you squeal with delight. Go and see sweetie.
Get better soon. I will be saying a prayer for you. You package was mailed yesterday so you should have it before the week is out. I hope you enjoy it. Country hugs sweetie...Sherry
Mmmmm, mmmmm , mmmmm - love those pillows! Can't imagine what you could if you were feeling 100%! Feel better soon!
Wow, look at all these comments! You are one popular girl. Your pillows are wonderfully pretty, and I hope you feel better soon.
Wow...you should be sick more often;)! It gets your creative juices flowing...gorgeous pillows...I adore them both!
I am saying a little prayer for your quick recovery!
XOXO

Sissie,
It's me again, look at my WW post today. You might see something familiar. Lisa
Hope you are feeling better soon! You sure are productive and creative while sick though...lol. Make sure you rest up!
Hugs ~ Angie
Oh, Sissie, I should get sick if it would help me create beauty such as this. You are truly gifted and your sister is beautiful. Thanks for sharing your gifts and your family with us.
Love your pillows beautiful job, love your blog too. I have to follow you. Hope you feel better soon.
Hi Sissie! YES! I feel terrible and keep right on going! I did it today. Then I thought, no, this mess has been here for weeks now and I've made headway...I NEED a break, sat down, felt sleepy and jumped up and went back to work. I get driven at times...and I'm not the napping type..
I understand completely!
When Sissie does it, Sissie does it good! I recommend pink tissue and cotton candy and a few life savers...for speedy recovery!
~The Girl with the Curl~

Sissie, I'm so sorry to hear that you're a bit under the weather, but those pillows are gorgeous!!! And I wish you could stop by for breakfast, I'd fix you something to make you feel all better!
Kat :)
Your pillows are fabulous! Especially love the graphics! I've been browsing your site this a.m., and every feature is lovely. What a loving tribute to your sister. I enjoy so much visiting you. Always cheery (even when a bit under the weather). Thanks for brightening my day!

Hi Sissie, Your pillows are beautiful! Since I like neutrals as well as pink, I don't even know which I would like better.
