Farmhouse Summer Swap 2016

Good morning dear friends. Wow, summer is soon to be gone and autumn will arrive. 'Kinda lookign forward to the cooler weather here in the South. Goodness, it is so humid here. One of the wonderful events of this summer was the Farmhouse Summer Swap, hosted by Amy of: Bumblebee Lane Cottage. This year, Amy was my swap partner. Pictured above are the adorable gifts that she sent to me: a precious & prim rabbit doll, a yo-yo table mat, a wool felt birdie pin keep, and a journal featuring a very prim cross-stitched cover. I absolutely love everything, don't you? Sending so many heartfelt thanks to Amy for these goodies as well as for hosting this swap. 'Want to see what I sent to Amy? Please continue reading.

~Two fabric-printed pillows~

These are two prim pillows that I made. This is a craft that is easy to do, and that suits me just fine. One pillow went to my twin sister Janice, and the other to me. Do you all like prim pillows? Thanks to: The Graphics Fairy for the cows and sheep graphics.

These are the backs of the two pillows. They are of navy homespun fabric, one checked navy and the other plaid navy. They were a lot of fun to make. Mother's is not pictured. It has the sheep image, and a burgundy checked homespun back. You can see hers here: Mother's sheep pillow.

~Sunflower printed onto fabric!~

Wow, for a long time now I have been wanting to try printing onto fabric. The pillow tuck pictured above is my very first attempt. Thanks to The Graphics Fairy for the tutorial and the pretty sunflower image. In fact, she has many great images on her blog. For the backing, I used a mustard and green plaid homespun fabric. Do you all like to print onto fabric?
