I decided to make a pillow for our boudoir.

*
A heart of random reds, surrounded by hot pink, bordered with baby pink
and shades of brown "chocolate bon~bons". The bon~bons have hearts quilted into each one
and I FMQ a heart in red. There's a flange around the edge and the back is finished with
an over lap pocket.
The maple leaves are a nod to my Canadian side and the crayons are for my boys.
The snowmen and snowflakes are a tribute to this winter's crazy amount
of snow we're experiencing this winter along with so many of you folks near and far.
*
Keep your snow shovels, blowers and throwers handy my friends cuz
"it ain't over til it's over"!
*
This just in.....
we're expecting more snow...20cm so they say!
Check out this talented group of sculptors,
*
*
All I can say is "Wow!"

Enjoy your snowbound week-end!
