I had originally started this project as a fabric collage…but decided to make it into a pillow. It was completed last month and needed the bottom to be sewn shut. I did so this morning and added a little aged tag. The pillow is made from muslin, antique trims, buttons and stuffed with fiberfill. I had forgot how much I enjoy sewing…at least when the machine and my hands do what I want! :)
Oh, this is so lovely, Nancy! Sewing adds such a wonderful element to art….but to me it comes under the title "Housework" so you won't see me adding it to my artwork anytime soon:)
Makes me want to get my sewing machine out AGAIN, when I just put it away. I so love this piece, Nancy. I can't say it enough!
fondly, Nancy
Hey Nancy,
This is really pretty…do you mind sharing how you applied the image?? Is it colorfast? I know there are a lot of products now that are treated for colorfastness but just wondered which one you have found to be the best.
Have a great day,
Love & Light,
Stephanie

I love the pillow…all the buttons and lace…really sweet.
I've printed images on muslin intending on making pillows but haven't had the time to finish them…maybe now since you have inspired me I will!
Thanks for sharing!
Ohhhhh, this is so nice.
I love it!It´s a dream.
