I want to steal your pillow
my name is shimelle. and i am a log cabin pillow addict.
{go on. wave and say hello. you know you want to.}
see, i only just to the realisation that i am a log cabin pillow addict. {clap. or at least nod your head and smile.} because before today, i’d never made one. so surely i could not become an addict in the course of just one day. no, i couldn’t.
it came from months of watching beautiful log cabin pillow posts by lisa, queen of log cabin pillows. seriously lovely stuff. i had to check every day to see if there were any new pillows. and then she stopped making pillows to prepare for her art exhibition. i kept checking, thinking she would relapse and make a pillow just for fun. she didn’t. so today, as her exhibition opens, i decided i was so in need of log cabin goodness that i would just have to make one.
and that is why i am here today.
the back is solid purple and tied with sage green ribbons. i like the badges so much i am considering making them for every soft furnishing in my flat. except they aren’t that comfy really, but i still like them. and anyway, i realised about half way through why i love these pillows so much: they are sewing with maths. putting the pieces together was like a geometry proof. seriously, i would make round ones just so i could sew with pi.
{and in all seriousness, the pillowsanonymous malarkey was a signal to marianne that i have finally finished reading dry, which she finished in like two days. hurrah for pighead. pighead is the best. ?}
