Ruffled Pillow for Fall
I belong to a quilt guild that encourages participation. This month, we are to make a pillow with an appliqued pumpkin. The pillow we saw as an example was made with Halloween fabrics. It was so cute. I made mine in fall colors so it could be used for fall instead of just Halloween. I finished it by putting beads on the vines. It closes in the back with Velcro so it can be washed. It was fun to make. I used iron on fusible webbing to adhere the appliqued pieces. I machine stitched a blanket stitch around the leaves, pumpkin and stem. I hand embroidered the vines and the center of the leaves. I want to make some more of these!




























Very pretty! I like the beads too.
Oh wow, Karen! That pillow is just amazing. I love the pleated ruffle and the awesome details of the applique!
That pillow is very cute! Great job and great thinking to make it for all of the Fall season, not just Halloween.
Lovely pillow. You should really go and create more
