I've been working on making lavender pillows this week. This fabric came from an old house dress from the 1940's. The fabric is too fragile to make something that gets a lot of heavy use like a throw pillow or a bag, but it is perfect for something that will have a quiet life, like a lavender pillow. I love the way the details of the fabric stand out, making each pillow a little illustration. A little sea story that smells very nice.

so cute! :)
A lovely idea and these are very sweet.
I love those! It is like a journey back in time to think of the life the fabric had in the 40', so great!
I love them - and the idea of them living a "quiet life." They're lovely, Jill.
