Simple Fall Pillows

Tuesday, August 21, 2012

Fall is right around the corner...
Hard to believe if you live in the hot.humid.South! ha!
Feels like summer right on!

This past weekend,
I made a few fall pillows to go in my booth.




Started with Iron-On Transfer paper,
running the transfers off on the computer.

The super cute graphics came from The Graphics Fairy.




I trimmed the transfers down, before applying them to a thick linen material
with the iron.




Each pillow was stuffed with poly-fil.




The "Pumpkin on the Pedestal" is my personal fav.
Got to make one of these for my home!








The two pillows below, were "trial and error made to the good!"
The little pillow was meant to be larger,
but that didn't work out.

It took a few tries to get the hang of the transferring.

With both pillows, I was trying to use fabric that was misprinted from a bad transfer
on the opposite side.
But it was getting late, I was tired, and I sewed both "bad" panels in, instead of out.
When I turned them, there was the dud panel showing on the back of the pillow.




In order to salvage the owl transfer, 
I cut it down as well, and added it to a burlap pillow.




Packed them in a large basket for display...




And these little darlings are headed to the market...
Just in time for Fall Decorating!
