Chloe Pillow Finished

Chloe’s pillow has been finished and is settling into it’s new spot nicely.  Isn’t it interesting how well the colors that Chloe chose are ones that work perfectly with my other pillows?  You can read about my inspiration from Chloe’s watercolor here if you missed it.  Of course, Chloe thinks that the pillow needs to reside in her bedroom.  She was trying to make a deal with me tonight that it could stay in her room and she promised not to use it when her hair was wet at bedtime.  Of course I relented….I do a lot of relenting as a mom. =)

For the backing I went with a little bit of Summer in the City fabric that I thought worked perfectly with it.

And I had Chloe sign the back of the pillow using a permanent fabric marker.  She asked me if she could add a smiley face after her name….didn’t even have to contemplate relenting on that one. =)

The pillow is a cute little guy–finishing out at about 12″ square.  And, I have made it just in the nick of time to enter it into the Blogger’s Pillow Party going on over at Rachel’s blog.  Tonight is the cut-off date. =)
