Ballard Inspired Pillow

While visiting my friends BLOG, CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT,
I loved this pillow that Debbie made.
A Ballard inspired JOYEUX NOEL pillow,
I knew I had to make one.
So off to my sewing studio and cut out my fabric for a finished 16"X16" PILLOW.
Taking into consideration that I had all this fabric on hand, Ballard's pillow was $69. ON SALE FOR $39.00.
My cost 0. just my time         . Debbie graciously supplied the graphics for the wording.


                                                Here is my BALLARD inspired joyeux noel pillow.

Another project done, just in time for my Ladies English Tea at noon today.
Thanks Debbie for the inspirations and the graphics.
  Now maybe I have time for another pillow?

    I want to make a pillow!!! That's also a great way to save - making your own - and you have better control over the design!

    Im stopping by from Favorite Things Thursday.

    Amazing...you are so talented and that is one of the reasons that I would like to pass along the Liebster award to you. It was given to me and I want to pass it your way. I am not sure if you accept awards but drop by. Best Wishes for the holiday season.

    Great reuse of items you had on hand, Linda! I have a huge stack of fabric pieces that would be perfect for trees on pillows like these. I should get started early for next year. ;)

    Thanks for linking to Time Travel Thursday. Hope to see you again this week.

    Blessings,
