making me smile

                                                                                                               

                                                                                                         

This pillow I made yesterday with fabric from here.  The back is an olive colored crushed velvet, ummm, so cuddley soft!

                                                                                                            

                                                                                             

Have a great weekend, it's supposed to be beautiful here, I cannot wait!

Very pretty! Is the edging done in crochet? How does one edge fabric in crochet?

what a great pillow! at first, when i saw this on my reader, i thought the title was referring to that aloe plant in the background. that would make me smile too--i love aloe (isn't that what it is?). those skinny leaves though--usually the leaves are so fat. what kind is this?

ok sorry for the plant tangent. :) really do love the pillow.
