Have you heard about the Blogger's Pillow Party that Stitched in Color is hosting? You know how I love a good pillow. For evidence just check out some pillows I've made here, here, here, here, here, here, and here.
I love being able to experiment with different fabric combinations, and pillows add such versatility for decorating, i.e. very little commitment. So when Rachel asked me to be a judge for the first month of Blogger's Pillow Party I could hardly say no. Yay!
Here's the scoop, the prize for January's Blogger's Pillow Party is a 1/2 yard stack of the Innocent Crush "The Swept Away" palette by Anna Maria Horner!
That's right, a total of 11 cuts, so 5 1/2 yards total! Imagine all the possibilities...okay, now stop daydreaming and I'll fill you in on the rest.
The prize for this month's winner is generously sponsored by Sew Love Fabrics. Definitely check out her etsy shop, she has hundreds of awesome fabrics to choose from!
There's just a few basic rules:
- Blogger's can enter ONE pillow per month.
- It must be made by you within the past 3 months.
- Enter by January 26th.
- The winner for this month will have their pillow posted right here on my blog.
Check out all the details here.
This is going to be a fun, social event that's not entirely focused on "winning", gotta love that.
Go ahead and submit your pillow to the Pillow Party Flickr Group Pool, too! Can't wait to see what you'll create!
Hmmm...my house could definitely use a few pillows around here
ReplyDeleteI'm so IN! I saw this when she first announced it and I was pretty excited to see that you're the first guest judge! I have a pillow all planned out and just need the time to make it. I've never done a pillow before, but I like that it's a smallish project that I can experiment with, and I know that my girls will love the extra pillow too! Hopefully I can get it done before the 26th.
ReplyDeletethis is awesome! Just yesterday I thought up a fun pillow idea, now I have a good excuse to actually get making it NOW!
ReplyDeleteI want to join, but I am from Spain. Is it possible?

How funny! I literally just got back from my local quilt store and bought 2 pillow forms so I could make some throw pillows for my boys room,
ReplyDeleteI will check it out! Thanks!
Cool, I just made a new pillow last night! And it gives me something for a blog post. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWOW! I finished a new pillow for my bed yesterday and was going to start drafting a blog post! Definitely entering this one! Thanks!
