Pillow Talk

On the weekend, M and I went to The Workroom to learn about sewing essentials. The owner, Karyn, also our teacher, has a lovely craft blog that may interest you...

We made these pillows:


M's Pillow: West Highland Whities or White Scotties - as we like to call them.


Mine is done in this pretty china blue upholstery fabric.

Not a bad effort, yes?

I'm particularly proud of M's accomplishment. She's only 9 years old!

  3. So cute! Can't help but think, though, that you need to make another of those Westie pillows to send to our good friend, LBR -- she and Lily would love one!

  6. Sal: I'm particularly thrilled with the fabrics. My friend Nicole helped me to choose the upholstery one and the Westies just floated out from the sale rack like a dream :-)

    Sophie: thank you! I think it's a nice contrast too...

    mater: You are so on! I intend to go back for more fabric. I only hope they still have it because it was on sale. LBR is in my thoughts...

    D.: Making them puts you in the mood for a nap too :-)

    Kate and Jill: Thank you so much! Jill - your recent post on the doctor kit was outrageous :-)

    Bel: I knew you would have something to say about it :-) We just call them White Scotties when Scott is around. Otherwise they are all Westie to us :-)
