My New Pillows

These are the pillows I sewed for the downstairs couch. I'm thinking of painting my kitchen the orangeish red color in this fabric.

I tried to get the backing fabric in this shot
I also have this coordinating fabric to make 2 more, but I haven't found a backing fabric that I like yet...

This is the pillow I made for Alison and Ellie. I thought for sure she would love this fabric (pink and bright) but she was disappointed that it wasn't princess. And they want softer smooshier pillows. So I am going to take them on Thursday to pick out their own fabric. I have no idea what Ill do with this pillow cover and the material I have to match it though :o)

Theirs is striped on the back...so cute.
