I have had such fun making animals and dolls that I had to MAKE myself go back to a project I started a couple of months ago.
I made one pillow cover out of the fabric I got at the thrift store. It was the last project I did on my Bernina and it was ‘acting up’ while I was sewing.
Now I have a new Brother sewing machine and have been sewing up a storm.
So I finally made the second pillow cover.
When I sat down in my recliner to load the photos on my computer, this was my view.
They look nice, I think.
Lots of ‘smaller’ projects to share soon!

Enjoy your day!

Oh yes, they look very nice. The pretty fabric just pops against your sofa.
That fabric is so pretty with your red couch! We have a red couch upstairs. Still love it!
The look perfect with your sofa and the floral pillows really make everything "pop." :) So glad you are sewing up a storm again. My sewing machine has been acting wild and crazy for several months so I think I had better take it in to be serviced.
Have a lovely day, friend!
The red poppies do POP. You always have such cool projects. I enjoy seeing what you make.
Love that fabric they look perfect Diane
I have four machines down right now that need to go to the shop but two still functionable

Lovely! Nice fabric! Hmm... me thinks I see a kitty coming up.
Your pillows look beautiful and I love that red couch.
The pillows look great, Diane. I'm glad you mentioned your new sewing machine....I've been thinking about buying a new one since I got my old one as a high school graduation present (that would be decades ago if you're wondering!) I'll have to check into Brother.
Lovely fabric and new header :)
Very pretty and I'm glad to see that I am not the only one who has a bright red sofa (and loveseat).

You're spending lots of great time with your sewing machine lately. Love the fabric in those pillows.
They look so cheerful, Diane. Glad you are having so much fun with your sewing machine. I need to pull mine out. xo Laura
Oh, yes, very pretty! They add a nice color and pattern. Oh that gift makes the perfect header! How darling is that?!!
Very pretty. That's one thing I can sew, pillow covers :) I love your Alice in Wonderland header. How fun. Thanks for leaving the link to the dollhouse blog. I'm going to love visiting there. Blessings
I do wish you would create a doll blog, that would be great!
They look so pretty! I love making pillows as they are fairly quick and rewarding to make.
Blessings,

Very pretty - I like that pattern.
What great pillows for a great room.
Love that pretty fabric. My machine needs an overhaul too. I have been thinking of trading it in. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
They are lovely and it is always so gratifying to check something off the list.
Lovely Diane,
They look perfect on your red couch...love red, so cheery and happy color.
Hugs, Lynnie
Looks really good - I like the flowered pillows with your red sofa! (This is my one-day-a-week posting and commenting). Hope you stick with me. I find I'm getting more done on other projects when I don't blog everyday.
Oh how I do like the new header on your blog....and, I do really like that red sofa!! What a great job you have done on the pillows and they just seem to "POP" there on the sofa. Good job!!
Love those pillows! I sometimes wish I'd bought a red sofa...love it!!
hugs,
Linda
Your pillows look great on the couch-perfect colors:@)
You are such an inspiration.
You are so lucky that you know how to sew! The pillows are gorgeous and you save so much money! They really jazz up the couch. Happy sewing with your new machine.

Pretty pillows! I need to get back to do some sewing in my studio room, now that Jim is doing better and doesn't need constant attention.
The pillows look great, but I am completely wild for your header. This is the first time I've seen it and I may have to do something for the magical kingdom of Buttercupland.
Love your pillows...they are so pretty!! I have some pillows on my sofa that look a lot like yours, but mine have a different kind of red flower on them. My big embroidery machine is a Brother....they are a good machine. My sewing machine is a Pfaff...and I love it too. I used to work at a sewing shop and Pfaff is what we sold back then, but now the shop sells several brands. Sometimes I miss working there. Loved teaching the classes.
Happy Sewing!!

Your new pillow covers are pretty! I love making projects like that. So fun!
You did a nice job on the pillows, Diane. I really like your red couch. I have always had neutral colors in my couches, but the next one is going to be floral or something with a bit of color. I can't wait.
I hope you are enjoying the Florida summer days.
love,
~Sheri
by the way, your Header is so fantastic! It's whimsical and delightful, I just love it. :~)
You are so creative. Love the pillows. Have a nice evening.
The pillow are very pretty on your sofa! And I love the color of your sofa, too. Enjoy your new pillows and have fun with the sewing projects!

I LOVE a thrifty pillow! Pretty fabric and it looks so good on your sofa!
I love the floral pillow covers, Diane! Have fun with your new sewing machine. :-)
They're very pretty, Diane, love the fabric; they brighten up the deep red solid of the sofas, which btw, from what I can gather, is exactly the same colour as my sofas!
Great job! Happy weekend!
