So here is my reveal! :D
Last week I posted the what... Renato Parolin's Magie di Fiori
and now I can tell you the why, when, and where!
I made this pillow for a surprise party for a great friend I have known for over 20 years. The surprise party was this past Sunday, her lovely daughters gathered all of her friends together and off we went in a stretch limo to spend the day on the East End of Long Island at the vineyards.
What a fantastic time!
The last couple weeks have been a little nerve wracking trying to finish, but I luckily did just under the wire! :D
I really fell in love with Renato's design.
I am glad I have found his Italian designs, I love his flower patterns.
This was a BIG challenge for me, my first pillow ever. But I think it came out very nice! :D
...and I added a special quote about friendship and flowers.....
It will be a day to remember for sure.
I hope my friend will enjoy the design and pillow and remember the special day too for years to come.
Thanks for visiting! I really appreciate all of your comments and thoughts.
Have a wonderful week! xxxx
