I made these last week in anticipation of Make It 4 Monday.
I only got one done though.
Hmmmph!
I guess I know what I will be doing tonight!
I am talking about the ones at the back.
Believe it or not, the bed is made!
We had these pillow inserts on our bed before. Yes, I have turned my hubby into a pillow tramp.
Seems he likes all the pillows.
It is great getting in bed with all the pillows!
I just cut the front piece the same size as the euro insert and the back is two pieces overlapped.
The fabric came out of the fabric pile. The ruffle I made out of a sheer. It's ruffled 2-1/2 times the size of the pillow with seams at the corners.
Sew it all together and voila! A new pillow for the bed!
Now for a pretty little toss pillow for the center.
Maybe next Monday.....

Maggie,
There is nothing more inviting then a bed made up in all white linens with lots of plump pillows. I love your ruffled euro pillow! I have two euros on each bed in our home and it gets expensive finding shams. My mother won awards for sewing and taught me at a young age but I haven't sat behind a sewing machine in a long time. Thank you for the inspiration to give it a try.

A pillow tramp - that's cute. :-) The ruffles are fun! Hope you had a great Easter.
absolutely delightful! I love them! I hopped over from Cottage Instincts and am so happy that I did. Please accept my invitation to drop in at my place one day this week when you get a moment. I have become a follower and hope that you will do the same. until later...
I love a big bed full of white pillows. Looks so fresh, clean, and comfy! I am slowly trying to convert my husband into appreciating lots of pillows. Good job on converting yours!
how can anyone not like lots of pillows...thats what makes a comfy bed(:
Maggie, These pillows are so pretty! I love. love, love (!!!!!!!) the sheer ruffle!!!! I would love to have a pair just like them for my Gable guest bedroom. I believe you can't have enough pillows on a bed. You are one talented lady!!! Your white bed linens look gorgeous and so inviting. What a wonderful job!
I had soooooo many people here over the weekend. 8 in house and 25 for dinner and dessert. I also got a relapse of bronchitis and feel like a truck ran over me- so I haven't posted yet this week. Maybe tomorrow. Do you ever feel like it would be easier to have have your house demolished and carted away than cleaning up after a holiday? Maybe it's because I feel so yucky!
I would love to sleep for a week in your beautiful pillows! So wonderfully done!!!!

After seeing your picture of Lucille Ball in your profile, I had to see what was up at your blog. I have become a follower, and hope you will stop by and follow me for a bit! Love the pillows. I just learned how to do piping recently and made a couple of pillows for the bedroom.
Love the all white, and love the ruffle!
