Pilllow with Trim

Good evening to all.  Hope you have been following our new project this week.  We chose to do a pillow using upholstery fabric and adding a trim to give it a little different look.  You can certainly omit doing the trim but it gives it a nice finished look and it is not that difficult to do.  Check out In-Weave in Hawarden, Iowa, as they carry a huge selection of upholstery and a nice variety of trims.  This project is not too difficult and would be something great for a beginner sewer to try.  It would also make a nice 4-H project to show how you can use up that extra fabric.

It is great to be able to pick the colors you want and end up with something that no one else has.  Don't be afraid to try something new.  That's how we all start out and you keep on sewing until you master it.  Also, don't be afraid to ask someone you know for help when sewing a project.  Have fun and enjoy.
