A new Tea Towel available...

I've added another tea towel to my Spoonflower shop, just in time for you to make a quick gift for someone!

It prints on a beautiful linen/cotton fabric with a border that allows for it to be hemmed.

When I saw the theme for this hop, I instantly knew what I wanted to make. A couple of years ago, I participated in another hop called "Summer Sensations." I created a pillow named "Strawberry Season" (the .pdf pattern is still available in my Etsy and Craftsy shops).

I've wanted to do another version of the pillow, one for a different time of the year, and this hop provided the perfect opportunity to do just that! I'm calling the pillow "Pumpkin Time," and here's what it looks like:

Pillow back:

It's a cotton pillow that measures approximately 14" round, and approximately 8" thick when stuffed. The pumpkin medallion is appliqued in WoolFelt, and it is attached to the front of the pillow with button embellishments. The pillow is easy and quick to make, and the applique part is only a bit more involved than the pillow itself.

If you'd like to make it, the .pdf pattern is now available in my Etsy and Craftsy shops)
