JOZY`S MEMORIAL PILLOW

A few months ago, Sissie 2 (Suzi- the sister in the middle) and her husband lost their cat to old age. She was a nice kitty so I decided to make a pillow cover to in her honor. It is just a simple applique but it was fun putting it together. Most of the time is spent trying to decide on a color scheme when I do applique. Once I get a color scheme, I like to play around with different fabrics to see what looks best. This is how it turned out. By the way, she said she is done with animals for awhile. I hope she`ll take this one in as it requires little care.

Lovely pillow, Pamela. I’m sure Sissie’s husband will be greatly comforted, too. I have to admit, I am a fan of freestyle sewing. Formulated patterns and handwork leave me in awe, but what I really love is work that says to me, “Oh, I know who did this and isn’t it great!”

Hi, me again. BTW, daughter no. 1 is making her first quilt and I can see it is going to be “her style.” She’s following in the tracks of the great sewers in her life–you and her grandma.

I love the pillow but am having a hard time finding a pillow to fit inside. I’ll just put in some batting and call it good. I showed everyone the Jozy Memorial from family to work and they all love it. Thanks so much, Sissy 1 for the wonderful, thoughtful gift.
