Embroidered Pillow

I love sewing pillows...but sometimes you come across a perfect pillow and just have to buy retail.

I was in Pottery Barn and came across this embroidered pillow.  I have been wanting to add a little blue to my living room.  This pillow has all the colors of the living room plus a little blue.  Isn't it gorgeous?

I bought two - I just love them.  I think it gives me that little bit of summer look I was craving in this room.

Of course the new additions required me to do some switcheroos of all the other pillows.
I'm happy with the final result...at least for the summer. Lol

Let me know what you think.  I always love and appreciate your comments.

    They look great! I think they kind of look like they've always been there and they'll probably work even after the Summer.

    Don't I know it! I just bought a pillow cover off Ballard Designs site, monogrammed, that was way too good to pass up. Sometimes these stores do have some great bargains; it's just a matter of checking in with them every so often. I think these pillows set out to do what you were looking for Judy!

    Okay. Could that flower have matched your wall color any better?!!! Oh my! Perfect match. Just love that when it happens. Haven't been in Pottery Barn in a while. Might have to stop in....

    I am pretty sure this is the one I have on my sectional. The colors are deeper in person. I love it!

    Love them Judy! I always exhaust my retail possibilities before dragging out my sewing machine. LOL! I think you found the perfect ones for sure! :-)

    Love the new pillow! It's simply gorgeous! I usually sew, too, but every now and again I find the absolute perfect one that has to be bought. Thanks for sharing.

    Your embroidered pillow is so beautiful. This pillow has all the colors of the living room plus a little blue. Best to keep in guest room.
