I've finally finished a few pillows for my master bedroom. Well, at least for the time being they're finished. One of the side effects of sewing as much as I do is everything is always subject to change.
For instance, on a recent trip to Dallas I fell in love with this gorgeous tone-on-tone neutral damask.
If you recall, just a few short weeks ago I was showing you this glimpse of the double ruffle box pillows I'd made for my bedroom. I loved them. Really, I did!
Call me fickle but when I brought this damask home and took one look at it in my bedroom, I knew I'd be sewing myself some more pillows.
The texture of this fabric would remind you a bit of the old flocked wallpaper. Only much, much prettier! I also went back to an old favorite and used a large 5.5" ruffle on these 27" pillows.
I decided to sell the ruffled boxed pillow covers.
Fortunately, I had seen where Pamela over at From My Front Porch to Yours had written how much she liked the double ruffle box pillows. I contacted Pamela and she decided they were just the thing for her guest room!

Except it's seems they got sidetracked when they found a new home on "The Old Lady" .
I also made a monogrammed pillow I'd been wanting for a long time.
I've never had such a calm and neutral bedroom. Nor one with such a light color scheme. Our master bedroom always been full of pattern and color, usually quite dark. I'm really enjoying the new look.
Stay tuned for more details!
SHARING WITH:
I love these new damask pillows, very nice. Loving that monogrammed pillow, too. I wish my machine would monogram letters that big but it doesn't. What nice, soothing colors for a bedroom! So pretty!
ReplyDeleteI think your bedroom looks lovely, Sonya! Love the pillows and I saw where Pamela got those box pillows. I actually have two box pillows that I got at a really good price several years ago through Country Living magazine. The fabric could do with some updating, but they are great pillows. I don't know that I'd attempt them myself, so you may be getting an email from me sometime soon! : )
ReplyDeleteWell, I love both sets of pillows. If I had as much talent as you have in your pinky I would be doing good! :)
ReplyDeleteSonja, these pillows are just gorgeous! The fabric is luscious I think and yes, very calming. The monogram is fab! If you do monogramming for others, please let me know.
ReplyDeleteOh, and if you ever have some time while in Dallas, let me know! We could meet for a bit.

ReplyDeleteSonya, these pillows are just gorgeous! Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteSonya- I love your pillows! You do such a wonderful job. That fabric does remind me of the old flocked wallpaper you used to see...but MUCH prettier.
ReplyDeleteWe went with a real neutral tone in this bedroom, too. I love it...but it does take some getting used to not having much color. It is SOOO serene though, isn't it?
They are gorgeous, as usual! Where do you like to fabric shop in Dallas? I always hit Cutting Corners and have been to lots of them around Harry Hines, but haven't found any that are that great. I'm headed there next week, may have to make a stop.
ReplyDeleteOoh, how lovely! I think your bed looks so pretty and romantic.

Fabulous pillows...I don't like spending a lot of money on throw pillows, so I really, really, really need to learn how to sew. I have quite a few that need a "makeover" I love all the ruffles - especially in the neutral fabrics you chose. Thanks for stopping by my blog, I really appreciate it!
ReplyDeleteSonya it looks sooo pretty!!! You are sooo crazy talented lady! Thanx for sharing the love! I hope to get the guest bedroom headboard done so they can go in their intended home. I truly LOVE them!!
ReplyDeleteThe pillows are beautiful, and that damask fabric is perfect. See, neutral is not so bad after all. :)

ReplyDeleteJust gorgeous, Sonya. The tone-on-tone damask was definitely a great choice.
