I hope that everyone enjoyed their weekend... I had an interesting weekend... I broke my ankle! Yup. So, on top of the slipped vertebra in my lower back, I'm hobbling around in an air cast. Which is an improvement, I was on crutches over the weekend, which wasn't feeling very good with my back!
Soo, when I first became best friend with Pinterest, I saw this...
And I immediately thought of my BFF, Jen. She's originally from here (CA) and now resides in Kentucky. I thought that it would be cute to make state pillows for people that love where they live and/or where they came from.
I thought that a state loving pillow cover could be very fun, so I made a few to sell in my shop! I used my Silhouette Cameo and Flocked Heat Transfer for this - I love the way it turned out! Take a look!
I used my yellow and white chevron fabric and sewed the cover first. I formatted the state on my Silhouette and then added the heart.
I really really really like the look of the gray and yellow! Since my BFF is in Kentucky, I made a KY pillow for her, I thought that the 2 pillows would look good together...
I thought that I would like the yellow on red, but the red pattern is noticeable through the state and I am not a fan of that! I may do another layer of the yellow on top of the yellow state - I think I can do 3 layers of the heat transfer...
The best part is that I can do all of the states! And some countries! I love my Silhouette! I'm planning on sending these pillow across the country tomorrow!
Hope you enjoyed my Pinterest moment!
