My Window Treatment.



I am not sure if this is going to stay; but with the imminent heat arriving, I felt that a window cover in the kitchen was needed.  This fabric used to serve as a pillow case.  I am not a sewer (nor a bike rider...etc) however a quick-unpick revealed this hemmed fabric.  It might cut down on the sunlight and I love the old Australian labels on the fabric.
I even hemmed another piece of fabric today; I will show that off later.

Pillow Parade.


Pillow covers crocheted by my Great Grandmother.

A very bright pillow given to me by my Mother.


A pillowcase that I made featuring Australian product advertisements. I know it is upside down, sorry, but it is Down Under after all!



A lavender pillow bought for $1 at the school fete.




My sister in law made this pillowcase for me for our anniversary as I love Australian animals.




The top pillow was made by my Godmother to bear our rings in our wedding ceremony. The bottom pillow was embroidered by a family friend for the birth of our first child.




My Great Aunt painted and made this pillow for the birth of our third child.

Pretty in Pink.


A favourite pillow case and the duvet from my Great Grandmother.


7 year old daughter has lovely linen from a friend.
