vintage fabrics ... meant to be used

Not long ago, my mom purchased some pillows from me that I had made from vintage fabric. I purchased that amazing vintage blue floral fabric that you see below many, many years ago. I was saving it for just the right project because I could barely stand cutting into it. There is something about actually using some vintage fabrics, and not just collecting it in order to look at it and touch it from time to time, that can be very difficult! Well, I finally bit the bullet and decided to use some of the fabric on these oh so comfy pillows. Well, my mom purchased them from me recently at a show to use on her family room sofa. Wouldn't you know that Sophie, my mom and dad's dog, has taken to these pillows as her favorites. And you know, I wouldn't have it any other way. It is just a small reminder that all of these fabrics that some of us collect and treasure are meant to be used and enjoyed, by both man and "beast" (and a very cute one at that :)).

until next time, melissa
