Getting Ready for the Lavender Festival


I've been dyeing silk ribbons for my silk ribbon embroidered pillows that I will have at the Lavender Festival Saturday!


This year all pillows will be the same size. I ordered pillow forms so I wouldn't have to stuff each and every one. That's very time consuming, and I've been having trouble with my hands, so just popping in a pillow form should help a lot!
 

I'll share some photos of the actual embroidery in a day or so.



Take care and God bless,
Lana

  1. I have a feeling they are going to be GORGEOUS!!! I know these ribbons sure are!
    I was interested in hearing that you have trouble with your hands too. Mine have been aching so bad that
    sometimes I dread having to use them. That's them screaming at me to "please just give me a rest" It's amazing how much our hands are expected to do for us. I hope yours get a rest soon Lana!
    much love...

      I'm sorry you have hand trouble, too. It's aggravating, isn't it? We want to work, work, work and our hands say stop, stop, stop! ;)
