RA Pillow



My next project was the RA pillow. This pillow is much larger than the HOC and can definately stand on it's own. There were alot of different techniques to master making this pillow. I was not as accurate as I could have been on my first attempt with applying the candlelight cords and the top stitching, so I had to start over. I learned that practice is the key to making these pillows look as good as they do. The free motion stitching with gold metallic thread over the gold lame was really a challange for me. This took many practice circles before I felt that I did it correctly but it was worth it. I think this RA pillow makes a statement.
