What a busy and beautiful weekend! I hope a good one was had by all!! Over the weekend I finished up a recent, pretty adorable custom order that came through my etsy that I thought I'd share today!
Sometimes the most simplest of projects are the ones that make me the most happy! And, look... something for little boys! Finally!!
My customer sent me photos of a pretty simple, applique quilt with a transportation theme to base these train pillows after. She plans to have them sitting in front of the headboard instead of shams. I think it's both a clever and extremely cute idea!
This was definitely a fun project for me!
I'm loving them all stacked up!
The backs are finished in a few of the Ruby Dot prints I just picked up from Skye Reve Fabrics. These teeny tiny dots are another great neutral. I love that Sundae print, too!
I hope there will be a happy boy on the receiving end of this weekend's pillow making!! I'm linking them up with Today's Creative Blog!
As for today, I'm hoping to make a dent in my new stack of felt!!
How about you, do you have any sewing plans for today?

Very cute, Maureen. It's fun to do something new. So, where do you get your felt from? What a gorgeous collection!
ReplyDeleteLove it! So adorable and for a boy. Great picture of Haila...a box is the best toy ever.
ReplyDeleteThank you Cynthia!!Gotta love the cardboard box!!
DeleteWhat a cute project. Great selections for the fabric. You are so talented. I'm new to your site.
ReplyDeleteDue to downsizing, I recently lost my desk job of 20+ years. It's all good though because now I get to do what I was meant to do. I am a creative person and I've got my creative juices flowing and you are such an inspiration to me!! You are so lucky to be able to express yourself through your creations. I aspire to be like that. Thanks for what you do :-)

I love those pillows. My oldest was totally into trains as a toddler, we would've adored these. :)
ReplyDeleteit's so sweet maureen! and wow, that stack of felt, looks like fun!

ReplyDeleteThose cushions are amazing, my boys would have loved them when they were younger! There is so little stuff around for boys.
ReplyDeleteThat felt looks like fun!!
Thanks Joanne! My boys would have loved them, too, a few years ago! Oh, if only I had known how much I'd enjoy sewing. That's one of my big regrets!!
DeleteWhat a brilliant-cute idea! Absolutely adorable.
ReplyDeleteNo sewing until the weekend, but then I'll finally finish the dreaded curtains for my sister. All four are hanging in my living room and bedroom atm, waiting to be hemmed. Can't believe I managed to sew three this past weekend. :)
Cute project. I am going to finish my Christmas Quilt wall hanging. Then after school I will continue to teach my DD (9) how to make a pillow. We have started sewing lessons with mom. She is a little daunted by my machine but she has a eye for design.
ReplyDeleteJUST ADORABLE!
ReplyDeleteHAPPY STITCHING + TEACHING!
They turned out perfect!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful idea, these would look great in a "boy" quilt, too. I'm working on a patchwork, using Echo.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! Your train pillows are beautiful and I just love the idea!
ReplyDeleteAnd all that felt in those amazing colours - oh!
They are the cutest!!!
ReplyDeleteThey are adorable!! My youngest would go crazy over them since he has a train themed room!

ReplyDeleteI'm loving all that felt! Where did you get it? There are some really nice colors in there.
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous cushions. When my boys were little I designs a set of wall hangings for them - trains, planes and traffic! There was very little available for boys back then, now thankfully, with todays designers, we are very well catered for.

ReplyDeleteThese are so cute !!
ReplyDeleteI love the sundae print too. I bought a couple yards of my favorite colors because they are hard to find !!
