My fantastic friend,
Pam, made me this just-right cross-stitch for my birthday! The plan was to frame it, so I was going to start combing the thrift stores for just the right one. Then I got the bright idea to make it into a pillow and last Sunday I treated myself to a few hours of sewing something quick and fun.

The colors and vibe are just right for the guest bed which is also a place the Beastie Grrrlz are rarely allowed. Ahem. |
When I was mulling over backing fabric options I remembered I had this fun faux bois print from the remnant bin! So I "framed" it
and made it into a pillow! Mitered corners and everything.

Look at her perfect stitches! Sooooo many tiny, little, perfect Xs. |
Wonderful! And I love that you had faux bois fabric to use. OF COURSE YOU WOULD. :)
