Pillow 2 - detail |
First the detail with a needle tatted ornament. I am simply dabbling with needle tatting - so experts see my mistakes. The turning was not always done in the right way. |
Pillow 2 - detail |
And here is the completed pillow - I am not sure it will be a pillow
after all. It has got rather a funny shape: 32 x 21,5 cm.
It was in Karen Ruane's class on Pillows and Papers. - Mostly handsewn.
Pillow 2 - completed but not stuffed |
This morning in the park - wild geese
and I had the idea of making 7 little balls instead of 6 - and it worked fine.
What an interesting piece of art. I love the different textures you have used in the pillow making. The pincushion is pretty too.
ReplyDeleteyou know i love the pillow/hanging you made.....but i smile each time i look at your wonderful pin pillow. where did that idea come from? i love it.
ReplyDeleteThat is such a neat pin cushion!
ReplyDeleteAs for the 'pillow'. It will be a caressed and fiddled with pillow. For children one can often see tag toys, this is the tag toy for adults!
Very cute pin cushion - I have not seen one like it before. You did very well on your pillow considering you had limited supplies. I love it.
ReplyDeletegood to see some needle tatting on your pillow Anneliese. i really like this one and yes think it is a good shape, I have made a few this shape. Think 7 balls work well together, they say an odd number is always better than an even one.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful reflection you have in the water with the ducks
Lovely work in your pillow, and lovely seeing your needle tatting on it. It is a very interesting pin pillow, and I like yours having 7 balls also. Very nice work.
ReplyDeleteYour pillow has a wonderful texture about it, and I really like the colours---all so organic, earthy. Love the pin pillow, too! 7 is good.
ReplyDeleteIt all looks OK to me :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a good Sunday,
xx
