From the 21st through 24th of January, there is an awesome Blog Hop going on at Creatin' In the Sticks. Carla is hosting this awesome event and we were to create something that is black and white, with some color added if we wished. Here is my project:
Black & White Color Study Pillow. It is actually an 18" square cover with a black envelope style backing for the form. Since green is my favorite color, the pillow has varying shades and tones of green on the lower section. The quilting is just simple walking-foot grid work. Very minimal design. Guess what- there were enough of the fabrics left over to make a matching
soda can cozy! Be sure to hop on over to Carla's blog to see many other unique creations through the 24th. The link below redirects to a list of all participating blogs. Happy creatin'!

ReplyDeleteWhat a clever idea for the pillow! Love the little can cozy too.
ReplyDeleteWonderful, Danice! The greens are so fun and the pillow is just terrific. I bet that cozy will come in handy and what fun to have one to remind you of this hop.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun and pretty quilt! The green at the bottom makes this pillow pop right out. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI really like the green tones with the black and whites. A study pillow was a good idea.
ReplyDeleteLove that pillow cover and I could just lay back on it with a can of pop in the AWESOME soda can cozy. Did you make a pattern or tutorial or could you. I would love to make a can cozy. Thank you, Danice, for joining the B&W blog hop. Love your projects with the pop of green.

ReplyDeleteWhat a fun pillow. The greens really play well with the blacks and whites.
