Mischief Managed

Next up for the late gift giving parade, is a gift for my Harry Potter loving buddy,  Jeni.  Since I have been on a pillow-making kick, I decided to continue on with it for her.


I saw a shirt on flickr a couple of years ago with this image and when thinking of something for Jeni I thought it would be perfect for her.  So I made one up in photoshop and screen printed it on some sparkly linen.  Then I got to adding some improv-y patchwork  using Lizzy House Constellations and some purple shot cotton.


This was my first time using pom-pom trim on a project.  Boy was it tricky to sew.  But I do LOVE the way it looks on this pillow.  So much fun.


I also added some embroidery to the back panel of the pillow.  Just for a little extra something.  She has it now and says that she loves it so I am a happy camper.
