Blue and pnk pin pillow









I made this pin pillow as a birthday present and it's one of my favourites,  though I think the colours and that lovely floral fabric have something to do with that.  

The flowery fabric is vintage and the piece I have is gradually getting smaller and smaller.  It'll be one of those fabrics that I just can't use the last bit of! 

The gingham is another favourite,  but fortunately the fabric she's always have plenty of that. 

There's a little embroidered ric rac,  another staple, with little french knots. The pink braid was found on eBay, as was the white lace.

The button, given to me by a lovely lady who shared her button tin with me, was tied on once the pillow had been stuffed.

It's rather nice, even though I say that myself!
