yay! for the pillow!


yup yup! yippee yippe! yep! lol! i'm over the moon now!! :) i'm so SO happy that i'd finally finished the r.pillow last night. it took me forever to design and make it! some of you may be aware that i like to exaggerate something cute in things i made. but i need to make this into something formal and elegant and personal. so this would be a big challenge for me :o . every stitch was slow-mo after i'd ripped part of the border embroidery to resize the pillow. the experience was heart-strickening. lol . i'm so scared to mess/rip anything from the delicate fabric ever again. i've tried the vintage sparke buckle but it doesn't matched with the golden embroidery. so i settled with this little faux diamond button. the base gold color matched so fine with the others . the bride has chosed ivory+gold+apple green for the colors. i hope the green lace is apple green for her because i love it! :) not so bright and dark. a simple green to lighten the gold.

i love the back !!! a pretty bow to look at AND the effect was so :} just the way i wanted. i can imagine the bestman holding it standing infront~ so romantic! lol. no?

this would be a little gift for the bride. hope she'd like it.
