The blog might get a little dead for a couple of weeks here at howtobejenna. Too many of my upcoming projects are Christmas gifts!
I did make these pillows (there are two of them) recently for a housewarming present and they have already been gifted. All you can see is the pillow case, resting on a green pillow, because the gift recipient has already received pillow forms from me in a past present.
It’s a reverse-applique embracing frayed edges for texture. I’m VERY inspired by the work of THIS ARTIST. So cool – definitely a technique I’ll be working on.
I should have snipped some of the unruly threads before I took this picture, but… you know….
This is fantastic! I read Dan’s blog at http://pieceandpress.blogspot.com/ and he is on Flickr too. Love the reverse applique and frayed edge ideas 🙂
