My husband looked at me as if I'd finally lost it this weekend when I told him that I was making an ottoman.
But - I wasn't kidding - it's Amy Butler's gum drop pillow in her new Cameo fabric.
I really thought this would be a weekend project, but it was oh so easy! and quick!
followed the pattern exactly except for adding a lightweight woven interfacing to each piece. The fabric is quilting weight and this gave it more of a decorator fabric weight.
And it does take a lot of stuffing!
I couldn't be happier with it though...
Our St Louis Modern Quilt Guild offered up a little shopping this weekend. The girls from Bob Bon Atelier in Kansas City visited with some beautiful fabrics. This feather piece just caught my eye! It's a perfect piece for pulling together a color scheme and I had fun playing with it when I got home!
I also picked up these two pieces of Simpatico. When I got home I had a nice fabric package in the mail. I had ordered some pieces for a project and out-of-the-blue, threw this florally print in my cart. Wow, it went nicely with my geometrics!
Finally from the garden! Some Sweet 100s!
