From the Atelier Pigtown

My mother and sister are headed downtown to meet me and go over to DeBois Textiles to look for some curtains for my mother’s study. I thought I would collect the pillows that I’ve made and display them, so they could see what I’ve been doing over the past few weeks.

I am really smitten with mixing and matching the different fabrics that I’ve been collecting. Barclay Butera on a pillow with Sister Parish…

A saffron and red silk check reversing to a Provence-inspired toile…

Duralee’s Addison reversing to Thibaut’s Surf in brilliant greens…

A black and white chinoiserie toile reversing to a black and white polka dot…

It is hard to decide which pillow I like the best. I guess it’s like choosing which of your children is your favourite!  Here are few contenders.

Barbara Barry’s Poetic Linen, with red piping.

Thibaut’s Edgartown, with hot pink piping Or this one, made from an old Indian caftan. I’ve put some of the pillows up for sale on my Etsy shop, because when it comes down to it all, I am a process person, not a product person. I’ve already given away about six seven pillows!
