we just had three straight days of sun here in the northwest
THREE WHOLE DAYS!!!!
THREE WHOLE DAYS!!!!
it made my heart sing, and sure put me in the mood for fluffing and changing things up
and in the midst of it i had this pink thing going on
~yes, pink~
i know, it must be spring
i love vintage linens, i use them to make my stamped ribbons and pillows and ruffles for my burlap runners
and so with spring in the air (at least for three days)
i decided to combine my love of vintage linens, pillows and this new thing for ~pink~
and ~ta-da~
here it is, my shabby rose french country pillow
here it is, my shabby rose french country pillow
kinda reminds me of cabbages and roses, but a little more free-spirited
i made it into a longer pillow (16x24"), so it would be comfy on a sofa or bed
or even out on the porch
not sure how long the pink will stay, i have this stunning aqua linen just calling out to me.......

I just found another vintage pillow case this morning at Savers for 50 cents. Very similar to your pillow fabric. Nothing better than the feel of vintage sheets!
Oh my! Your fabric pillow! City Cottage is featuring the same fabric in her blog! I love that fabric and pick it up whenever I see it!....So soft!
I realy like it on your chair!
Wow, you had me at shabby rose! I love that fabric!

So precious!
I love vintage linens, too! I have a box full that I have been hoarding to make a quilt with. I love the pillow!
Hi Tracey..just found you on the 'tickled pink' linky party. I love your cushion..I think I'm in the mood for pink roses today too...in fact I love making cushions as well. Don't they just dress a room? Go where your fancy takes you..all colours are beautiful!
Love this pillow! You did such a great job. I have been wanting to make some shabby chic looking pillows...now I am really inspired.

Really cute! I love any kind of vintage linens. I made a bunting for my girl's room out of a pillow case that looks a lot like this one! Great minds think alike! Beautiful!
