Happy 101 Birthday Nannie - 4th of July!

Happy safe and fun 4th of July everyone! 

In Full Glory by BBD
30ct Heroic Linen by Picture This Plus 
 Completed pillow July 3rd (just in time)

 Pocket for the back and used reproduction Civil War Fabrics

Tried a new way of attaching the rick rak trim as Claire had done on  my Easter pillow.
With my love and appreciation - Annette

Congrats on your In Full Glory finish! Love the linen you chose and I've never seen the rick rack sewn down like that. I quite like it!

I hope you have a safe and happy 4th! We don't have any big plans other than to keep the pup company - he doesn't like the fireworks our neighbors use.

Love it! thanks for showing us how you sew on your rickrack. Putting it in the seam is a pain and I don't really like gluing it around the outside. I'm going to try this method.

Congrats!
