silhouette pillow



Okay, here's a perhaps unexpected "supply" to be stockpiling: pillow covers. I picked up all of these at Ikea last year, meaning to embellish them. Time to finally get on that.
 $6 Ikea pillow covers in various colors...

I love Jane Austen, so I of course adore this Jane Austen silhouette pillow from Dear Lillie.

To make my version, I used one of my Ikea pillow covers, fabric from the packaging of some curtains I got from Urban Outfitters, and fabric glue left over from another project. The silhouette, from the second edition of Mansfield Park, is in the common domain and can be found here for download.
