Red and Aqua is such a beautiful, classic color combination. I really do love it! Yesterday I spent my sewing time making a new red and aqua owl pillow. This time I left off the ear-thingies at the top. I am still deciding if they should be there or not? Here's one with. What do you think?

I am definitely keeping the little curly-q hand stitching. I think it's my favorite part of making these new owl pillows!

I'm working my way through my new Hugs and Kisses Bundle from Moona Fabrics, until I have an Owl Pillow in each color. This print is one of my new favorites from Loulouthi. I'm even planning to make a little bunting from the scraps.

If you love red and aqua, you have to stop by Allsorts. A lovely blog that's all about red and aqua all the time! She even has a  "Pinboard" dedicated just to these two colors. Adding touches of yellow with red and aqua is nice too, don't you think?

  8. OMG, that pillow is even cuter than the other one. How is that is possible? It's got to be the colour combo, hands down! I'd say go without the ears. It's g-o-r-g-e-o-u-s.

    And thanks linking that awesome pinboard!

  9. How cute! Hmm, color combos I'm loving at the moment. Well, I'm enjoying my Swoon blocks in green/blue/gray, and I'm dying to get back to my red/black/aqua Rain or Shine blocks.

  16. Gosh, what a beautiful mosaic! This one makes me feel better about my Swoon color scheme. And, your closeup of those Loulouthi prints makes me think I need more Hugs and Kisses (and really, who doesn't).

    I like the owl ears.
