Embroidered Pillowcase -- Fall


Have I blogged about these embroidered pillowcases yet? I don't think so. I bought the vintage, king size cases is Alton, IL where there is a whole lovely row of antique shops in old buildings that are cavernous and beautiful. Next, I over-dyed them in a "blue wash." Finally I chose some motifs and embroidered a Spring and Fall version as a set for a wedding gift. Ta Da! I love the texture, and hand of this personalized gift--hope they wear them out!
