Good Morning Friends!
Today I want to share with you my very first of Spring Flowers.
Yes, it’s not just you Southern ladies who have beautiful flowers to lift their spirits after this longggggg Winter.
Okay, these are my Spring flowers!
I have decided that since it will be three months before I get to see any real Spring flowers, I will make my own.
This is what I started with.
I luckily stumbled across a Quilt shop a couple of weeks ago in a small town that’s an hours drive from where we live.
First I made two flowers by cutting several different sizes of circles. Some I folded over twice, some four times to add together to form the top flower. Then I cut the under flowers each a little larger until I had four flowers atop one another.
Very easy!
I added a swirly in the centre of each.
Lastly I created a vase, which I decorated with leftover fabric, ribbon, and buttons.
The final result is another t-towel pillow to add to my t-towel pillow shams.
And an easy way to brighten our Winter bedroom.
Now I have all kinds of ideas for creating Spring flowers for our home.
I got the idea from a shop on etsy.com called Tracy B Designs.
This ladies work is so.... pretty and imaginative and reasonably priced.

How precious! I'm making kitty cats out of terry cloth and it's so much fun...and so messy! We're both probably covered in fuzz! lol Hugs!

That is just the cutest bouquet of flowers! You are so creative, Kimberly. I love it!

This is very "springtime colours" indeed, and a great way to do flowers, you are inventive indeed. One hour to a fabric shop, if that were me, I'd need to stock up big time, not only food, but the necessities of fabric and plunger coffee!! before winter and snow covered roads set in!!! Cheers, Jean.
ReplyDeleteAdorable! and just the shot of color we all need this time of year. I think it looks like something Anthropologie would charge an arm and a leg for!
ReplyDeleteJust so adorable! Love the pops of color!
ReplyDeleteThat is just adorable!
ReplyDeleteLove your work of art. So sweet. xoxo,Susie
ReplyDeleteI love it!! Very pretty. Blessings
ReplyDeleteNow how can you think of so much awesomeness - like to know your secret in coming up with such nice ideas.. "do you sleep at night" - wink! Lovely pillow of Spring goodness - the colors are eye catching - thanks for the steps. Now I need a sewing medicine...
ReplyDeleteHugs
Beautiful idea. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLOVE it! Seriously sooo cute!
ReplyDeleteLovely! I think we've all got the creative bug lately. You go girl!
ReplyDeleteEvening, lovely, cheered me up, Thanks, Francine.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty and creative! It's nice to see any bright colored flowers, even 'created' ones until the real ones are here!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty and colorful! What a neat idea...you are so creative!
ReplyDeleteSo whimsical and charming, Kimberly!
ReplyDeleteYou are so talented, Kim!! And your sweet flowers are permanent, too!

Sweet and oh so cute, thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteHi Kimberly, I agree that spring is just too far away-I love your flowers and the fabrics are wonderful. WE are supposed to hit 65 degrees today, be still my heart, but have had a wave cloud roll in and I doubt we'll even hit 50.
ReplyDeleteHope you are staying warm.
Hugs,
Noreen
Cute! And I'm feeling lazier by the minute just looking at it! I have a quilt project I need to get done (after starting), for the little granddaughter who will be born in a couple weeks!
ReplyDeleteLove the pillow! The colors are wonderful!

ReplyDeleteThis pillow is so fun! I love the cute designs on the fabric you used and the simplicity of the design. The color is just the right pop against the white and the swirly centers just make it fabulous :)
