Pink Cabbage Rose Watercolor Pillows

I've been busy this week making new home decor products in my Zazzle shop because they've just released some really nice new products including pillows, kitchen towels, napkin sets and placemats.  The best thing about these new items is they are made in the USA by sustainably employed single moms, very exciting!  I started with the kitchen towels since I love to put flowers on everything.    

I made some dots with some more watercolor flower paintings and put them on napkins, kitchen towels, and placemats for matching sets.  The napkins come in sets of four.  One set measures 20" x 20" dinner napkins or 12" x 12" set of cocktail napkins.  Made out of nice 100% cotton.    

I made rose pillows with a smaller rosebud design and little blue dots.  These are nice big pillows measuring 20" x 20" and made out of 100" grade A woven cotton with a hidden zipper closure and a pillow insert so the covering can be washed if needed.      

And some coordinating rose stripes of the same flowers.  So all four fabrics coordinate together for some spring cottage home decor.  Having a fun week, hope you are too.

Letters from Nora Progress and Green Nine Patch Block

Image
I am almost finished with a nine patch quilt block, although a cross stitched one... I think quilt blocks look great in cross stitch especially with variegated fibers. I've seen some neat designs featuring quilt blocks. There is a designer on Etsy who has quilt block type patterns with a black cat and I love those. I used some of my favorite colors from The Gentle Art in this one, I liked the green and purple combination. I am excited about my progress with my letter C from Nora. I have one arm left on the little fairy (lots of little petite stitches so I have to be in the mood with good lighting to work on her) but otherwise the design stitches up fairly quickly. This is the first fairy I've ever done and I'm already thinking of more I'd like to do.

Swan Heart Hand Embroidery Pattern

Image
My son used to live near Virginia Lake in Reno and we  would take walks around it and see all the birds and at that time there were swans.  The lake inspired this embroidery pattern and the sentiment of love that the birds convey. I hope you like it. Click here for Swan Love embroidery pattern details

Quilted Potholders Watercolor Art Fabric

Image
I bought a quilting pattern a while ago to make potholders/hotpads and I thought it would be great practice for quilting blocks and it was.  I used some of my Spoonflower samples to make some of them.  Spoonflower samples for all the pieces used in the one above.   This hourglass pattern stumped me a bit and I had to stay calm and get the seam ripper out :)  After looking at the design I assumed I knew what to do...I used some of my cabbage rose collection with some commercial fabrics in this one. I liked this pattern, it is very easy and I can handle the two triangle squares on two corners... I used my cabbage rose fabric collection for some of the squares in this one too.   These are all that I made.  I really liked the log cabin hotpad and used up several scraps and it turned out bright and cheerful.  There are a few more patterns in the collection I want to try.   Fun new thing for spring!
