Pillows

Here are the finished knife edged pillows. Knife edge pillows have two sides that are the same size and usually have a corded edge. I made a self covered welt for these pillows to give a clean look. Other options to finish a pillow are braid, tassel fringe, brush fringe or a flange. When you are making pillows with a print or pattern always pay attention to center the design on the pillow. Also consider what will fall on the edges when using stripes and plaid fabrics.

Now, if I were only hand delivering these to Palm Beach.........
