No Effort Needlework

 I do love a good throw pillow. They seem to snazz up a room with so little fuss.

I found this piece of needlepoint in a broken 'ol frame at a thrift store for 99 cents. Pretty sad looking in the frame, pretty fantastic when paired with some flax colored cotton, a vintage yellow zipper and slipped over a fluffy pillow!

My favorite part? I get to enjoy this artful needlework without any of the effort!

    I was thinking about your autumnal medallion throw pillows just yesterday! Fall must resonate with your soul in such a way that you must beautifully fluff and feather your nest in preparation for colder weather. Lovely... keep fluffing.

    I have an old needlework that dan's been dragging around from appartment to house for years, made by some Rightmer relative, but never know what to do with it. Maybe you could help me turn it into some thing beautiful?
