for my mumsie's birthday...today!

on monday, i popped by my mumsie's house for a cup of tea 

(on my way home from doug and ra's).

i brought her a little bag of goodies for an early birthday surprise.

here's the pillow i made for her.

the back is made with another repurposed button placket, 

and a bit of leftover fabric from a dress i made for hannah

when she was a little girl.
(yes, my fabric stash is quite amazing.

the dress had an eyelet collar, and i think it might be in 

the "treasure box" in the attic).

i thought my mom might like a pillow 

that echoes the colors in my new studio.

happy birthday mumsie!
