I did some purchased pillows for someone. They chose the designs , Urban Threads. I had to open the seams, and with a smaller pillow the hoop caught , 2 hours later trying to pick out the stitches I had to come up with a solution, so off to the fabric store found the gingham linen fabric was going to just leave the edges unfinished but did look right, so off to the fabric store to get the trim. So Murphy's Law is right , when nothing can go wrong , something for sure will. Oh yeah they love roosters.

You did a wonderful job, but wouldn't it have been easier to suggest a pillow wrap? I love them. One pillow, many changes.

Great. Isn't it fun "unpicking" I'm the world's best. Been known to take 3 days to unpick a design. placed in the wrong place - Note the red rose tablecloth I did ages ago.. Now I Have a "Peggy's Stitch Eraser" and is worth it's weight in gold. Even undoes "cross stitch" wahoooo.
