Double Chevron Lumbar Pillow - Fantasy Collection & Essex Linen

I seem to be on a pillow kick these days!

Well, and also on a get stuff done and off my WIP list kick - ha!

Last week I shared the floor cushion I made featuring canvas and denim and this week I’m finally getting around to sharing this pillow which has been finished (and gifted) for quite awhile now!

I used to make pillows all the time, that is, until designing and making quilts stole my heart. But getting to mix in quilting with the pillow design, now that’s getting me fired up again.

Plus, can you ever have too many pillows kicking around?

Sew Organized | January Aurifil Artisan Challenge

Do you remember the first thing you ever sewed? Mine was a pair of gym shorts back in high school home economics class. I loved those shorts!

Looking back, I should have known there was a talent there. I totally nailed the sewing lessons and walked out with an A in the class. But sewing just wasn’t a focus of mine back then. So, once class was over, I never really tried sewing again until several years ago.

Guiding Lights Quilted Mini Wall Hanging

My plans for this little quilt came out of nowhere. 

I was busy working on my latest Ecliptic quilt (pattern in the works!) when inspiration struck. 

My sewing table was covered in half assembled blocks and I moved it all out of the way before I lost that awesome “make me now” feeling I get.

Do you ever get that feeling?

A new year means new projects to tackle and the chance to clear the decks of some stragglers that have been kicking around for…well, let’s not dwell on that 😉

I know you have them too!

Quilts that you absolutely loved at one point but have gotten distracted by new ideas and new patterns that you just HAD to make. I’m guilty of starting projects and then a new deadline comes up and I need to clear my sewing table.
