Aliah's Pillow


Hello and Salaams everyone :-)

I simply love this simple design adapted from the Ribbon Embroidery book by Craftworld. Working with a slightly dark fabric background means I need to carefully plan the color selection so that I wont make the whole design looks so 'busy'.

This pillow is for my niece solemnization ceremony which coincide with Prince William and Kate Middleton wedding day *wink*.

There are two roses that I embroidered with two different technique. I love the turn out of the briar rose which using a two tone polyester ribbon and I am happy with my Queen Anne Lace flower :-). I replaced the bullion spray with beads to make the sewing time shorter *wink*

A view for the whole design. I always like to add beads and lace into my design as it adds more character into it. It took me about 2 weeks to embroider this pillows and this time the finishing is without frills as I don't have much time to do the frills due to my hectic schedule in the month of April. Anyhow, I am glad that my SIL and my niece are happy with this pillow. Alia & Fauzi, Selamat Pengantin Baru and moga berbahagia sehingga ke anak cucu. Loves from your auntie :-).

Thanks for visiting and take care..xoxo
