Best laid plans and all that, it is still Monday in Colorado, here is a post about my new service/product that I promised to post today.
These are called Pillow Faces ©. Custom sized cuts of linen (or other cross stitch fabric) with cloth borders and trims that you can stitch to create a pillow. They can have cloth on 2 sides (one or more fabrics) with trim either attached or included (depending on the type of trim). Or the linen can be bordered on all sides with fabric. Fabric for the back of the pillow is included. I have had so many inquiries about finishing that I offer this as an alternative.
I’ve included this photo I took of Grandpa on Saturday who was looking a bit like a pillow himself.

Are you sewing these pillow faces yourself? That is alot of work. I see you started on the new LHN design. Really nice.
I decided to break my rule and start on an autumn project since I am concentrating on celebrating November. The photo of Grandpa is hilarous. We do, of course, need the story behind this one.

Those pillows are fabulous. I’m partial to the one with the chocolate quote on it ;). Definitely something I’d purchase.
I also love the wildlife pictures you have too. Wow!! Beautiful.
