Pumpkin Pillow from Jean Leg

Here is a pillow I made last year, 
before I started blogging.
This one is made from one leg of an old pair of jeans.
The other is a match to the table runner.
I actually posted them afterwards, then after the 
season ended, and in a brain fog, 
I decided I would do one of those scrolling
picture programs highlighting all of
my fall projects, only it didn't turn 
out as planned - it took way to long to load
and my pages was super slow - so I deleted it.

Anyway, here is the matching pillow to
the quilted table runner I made from scraps,
so there was only enough material for one.
If you look close the orange material 
has vague black strips. I loved it :)
The pumpkins came from a yard of cut outs.


Enjoy your Wednesday, Y'all!

  10. I'm loving these. I made some bags out of old jeans so I have lots of jean stuff - I had to go to tag sales and buy every pair of old jeans I could find - so I think I have the stuff to do this with. :) Would love to have you come and share this unique craft at my Pumpkin Party which is going on our blog for a whole month.
