Rosette Pillow
18” x 18”

Last September I saw this pillow in Target and figured I could make one to go in our living room (bottom right is the back).

 

My attempt started in October with 2 rosettes and ended this week with this…

It happened to be a project, like the Christmas Wreath, that looked to take a few hours.  It ended up being a project where each hand-sewn rosette took close to an hour to make.  One of those “what was I thinking” projects!

The good news is that I discovered another use for my Great Grandma’s yarn (the first use)…pillow cording!  Three strands of yarn make up “cording” for this pillow.

I’m glad I kept sewing after the first rosette and even more glad this project is complete!
