A Sewing Project


As I mentioned here I'm wanting to update our bedding with everything white. After I saw these pillows I knew they were perfect for our bedroom. While I was home over the holidays I took advantage of my mom's sewing machine and skills and we worked on our own version of the pillow together. We bought a thick white upholstery fabric and two-inch black velvet ribbon -- overall we were able to do the project very inexpensively. The back is an envelope back which made the whole project very simple. I'm super happy with how they turned out {thanks for the help, Mom!}
