Girly Bow Pillows


Sparkle
every day.




Hello, my lovely friends, followers, and readers!
How are you on this delightful Wednesday?
Today I have some sweet little bow pillows to show you.
They are easy peasy to make
and they add the perfect touch of charm and femininity to your home.




Let's get started, shall we. . .

Supplies needed:
fabric
Poly-fil
sewing machine and all that good stuff

As you can see, 
I made three pillows and the measurements are as follows:

large bow
two pieces of fabric that are 8x12-inches,
one small piece of fabric that is 5x10-inches

medium bow
two pieces of fabric that are 7x11-inches,
one small piece of fabric that is 4x9-inches

small bow
two piece of fabric that are 6x10-inches,
one small piece of fabric that is 3x8-inches.




Fold the small piece of fabric in half 
with right sides together.




Sew along the edge,
but leave the ends open.




Turn the fabric right side out
and press with an iron.




Bring the two raw edges together
and sew along the edge.




Turn right side out
so that the seam is on the inside.




For the pillow
you will want to pin the two pieces  of fabric right sides together
and sew along the edges.
Leave a small opening!




Flip the pillow right side out
and fill with Poly-fil.
You don't want to stuff your pillow
since you have to put the small ring of fabric around the center.
Sew up the opening.




Gently pull the small ring of fabric around the pillow
and place in the center.
Once you have it positioned where you want it
you can add a lovely little embellishment to the center.
As you can see I added a fabric flower to each pillow.
I simply hot glued them on.






You can add lace, pearls, gems, and so much more.
Be creative, my friends.

These pillows would look adorable in your little girl's room
or sew some up to give to a special friend.




It's always a joy to have you pop in for a visit.
May your day be extra beautiful!
Love and hugs!

Again, thank you for your prayers for my Grandma Dee Ann,
you are amazing, my friends!
 She had the mitra valve clip procedure yesterday
and seems to be doing well-
praise the Lord!
She is not out of the woods yet
so prayers on her behalf are very much appreciated.

Happy Labor Day, Friends!

Happy Labor Day,  sweet friends! I hope your day is simply delightful and ever so relaxing. Two things I wanted to let you know. . . I wanted to apologize for my lack of hymn posts for the last two Sundays. I shared with you that my laptop was giving me fits, and while some days it worked okay, other days it didn't work at all. My hard drive finally crashed in my Toshiba so just recently my hubby and I went laptop shopping and we purchased a Lenovo Yoga 720 2-in-1. So far I am loving it! If any of you have this model or even a different Lenovo model I would love to hear your thoughts. So I say all that to let you know that with a new laptop my posts and blog visiting should return to normal since everything is working well again. Thank you for your patience, my friends. Also, I wanted to let you know that everything in my Etsy shop is 20% off right now until Wednesday, the 6th. And please remember that I offer free shipping to all USA residents. Stop by Rose Petal Blessings . I ...

I'll Be A Sunbeam

Image
Let your light so shine before men,  that they may see your good works,  and glorify your Father which is in heaven. - Matthew 5:16 - Jesus wants me for a sunbeam, To shine for Him each day; In every way try to please Him, At home, at school, at play. Jesus wants me to be loving, And kind to all I see; Showing how pleasant and happy, His little one can be. I will ask Jesus to help me To keep my heart from sin; Ever reflecting His goodness, And always shine for Him. I’ll be a sunbeam for Jesus, I can if I but try; Serving Him moment by moment, Then live for Him on high. Refrain: A sunbeam, a sunbeam, Jesus wants me for a sunbeam; A sunbeam, a sunbeam, I’ll be a sunbeam for Him. - Nellie Talbot - I was looking through an old hymnal the other day and I came across this beloved song. I haven't thought of it in years and when I began reading the words  I was taken back to my childhood and the many times I sang it  in Sunday School or with my mom. While this might be a "ch...

Crisis Shot - Book Review

Image
Tess O’Rourke dreams of becoming  the first female chief of police in Long Beach, California.  As commander of the East Division, she is well on her way . . .  until the night she responds to an officer-needs-assistance call  and fatally shoots an unarmed teenager.  Despite being cleared of wrongdoing by a grand jury,  Tess is so hounded by the public that she takes a job in Oregon to escape the bad press. Winning over the residents of Rogue’s Hollow might be more difficult  than adjusting to her new role as police chief in the small, backwater town.  Especially when her closest friend, the pastor’s wife,  goes missing and the woman’s cousin is found shot.  Tess finds an ally in sheriff’s deputy Steve Logan,  but as they track down Rogue’s Hollow’s first murderer,  she worries that she’s breaking one of her rules and getting too close to him. My Thoughts Crisis Shot  is my first book by Janice Cantore and it certainly won'...
