Well, I kind of hate to even post on this one - mainly because I'm no seamstress - so all you excellent "sewers" out there, be easy on me, O.K. Ha Ha. I thought maybe someone would enjoy my "simple" sewing project - so if you'd like, hop on over to my blog - my lil' painted pillows are sittin' pretty. You all have a great day! Blessings to you!

It's never too late to be what you might have been.

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Cathy, your little pillows are so cute! You've definitely sparked some ideas and I'm thinking that a trip to the craft store is going to be added to my plans today. I'm sure they will be a big hit at your event.

Thank you Jessie for your sweet, kind comments. I simply used my acrylic paints - I did mix them with some textile medium - which keeps the paint from being quite so "stiff". You could use fabric paint I'm sure, just whatever is easiest for you. I just like to free-hand whimsical designs - but you could easily trace a pattern out of a magazine or something (my grandmother has always used coloring books for some of her t-towel designs). Inspiration is all around - have fun!! Thanks so much for looking! Cathy

Your blog is just lovely. I will definitly be stopping in again!:)

Too wonderful! ***sighs*** to be so handy with a paintbrush!
