If you are new or need a refresher for Sew & Tell guidelines you can click on the tab above for details on linking up!
I got some great feedback from a lot of you on the sew & tell survey I posted last week. Go check it out and give me your 2 cents if you haven't yet!

You can find us all here on Facebook now too. Go to the Facebook tab at the top to click over if you feel so inclined.

Please show good bloggy manners and only link up if you can adhere to these guidelines. One of the best parts of sew & tell is the encouragement we get from one another. Try and visit others and not just link up and leave! I know it's not possible every week, but that's part of the fun, right?

So you do you want to see what I made this week? Actually yesterday? While I was waiting to see if Hurricane Earl was going to pay us a visit? I was working on another project that needed a little more time than I wanted to spend on it. Plus it wasn't made out of Amy Butler fabric. I knew I wanted to get this little number done to go with the LOVE quilt. So I put the other one aside (for next week) and I whipped this up!
Seriously, I love making pillows. They are so fast and satisfying! You will probably be seeing some more of them in the next few weeks.
And I can't stress enough how much I. LOVE. POM-POM. FRINGE. Doesn't it just make it look so happy?
And the dots? Oh how I love Amy's dots. All of them. Every time she comes up with new ones - I have to have them in all colors. Or at least I think I do.
I used this awesome filler called Cluster Stuff by Morning Glory. It's little pellets of stuffing so it's very soft and not lumpy at all! (I may or may not have found it at a big blue box store that still had its sewing department.)

LOVE your pillow Amy and I heart that pom pom fringing too. That lovely big print looks just lovely on its own with the fringing, perfect! I'm glad you have reminded every one to visit the other blogs on the sew n tell links as I had noticed that not everybody was doing this lately. I've decided to only link up when I have the time to visit all the links myself as that is a big part of the linking up thing.
That cushion came out fantastic! It's bold, bright, and fun.
'LOVE' the cushions. The pom pom fringe jazzes a cushion up so well.
I am totally copying this. I have a secret plan to re-do Bridget's room and have pom pom fringe on everything. It's going to be awesome. (Love your photos, btw. You've found the light in the new house, eh?)
That fringe is too cute! The bright and cheery colors are fabulous. Thanks for sharing. Happy Friday! :o)
SOOOO cute! Love that fringe.
The pillow is beautiful and I know one little girl that is going to love it.
I super love pom pom fringe! Thanks for the fabulous idea. I totally forgot that there was trim as spectacular as that out there waiting to be put on pillows. :)
Okay, you have inspired me to find some Amy Butler! I love the pom-pom fringe!! I've only sewed with it once, and wasn't too happy with it. I guess I'll have to try again.
Amy, how cute is that pom pom fringe?!!! It goes well with the Amy Butler fabrics. I know I tell you every week thanks for hosting Sew and Tell Friday, but thanks for hosting Sew and Tell Friday ;-) Thanks also for the reminder (I needed it) to visit everyone's links. Going to do that now. Enjoy the holiday weekend.
LOVE the Love pillow. I am telling you, you are making me itch to buy this fabric! And the pom pom fringe is awesome.
very cute pillow ! pom pom fringe makes everything better, don't you think? glad earl skipped by you...he sure looked like a monster on radar. oh and i too lament the fact that the 'big store' closed their sewing dept! i nearly cried.
I LOVE your pillow! It is incredibly precious!!! I've linked up to the fun for the week :)
I also love the pillow! The fabric is fun and makes me want to snuggle with it and the matching quilt!

My mom wants 4 pillows for her patio. I really think Amy Butler fabric is just the thing.
LOVE the fringe!
Cute pillow! Pillows are very addicting and are one of the easiest ways to brighten up a room. The little pom poms add a touch of pizzazz, too! : )
Love the pom pom fringe and the fabric. You always AMAZE me. I wanted to put pom pom fringe on my bedroom lampshades, but unfortunately my husband put a stop to that. Dang it...maybe I should have eased him first with pillows. You are so inspirational!
Pretty, pretty Love pillow!!! The pom pom fringe is so fun!
LOVE! I think next week is going to be a pillow week for me too. My living room is in desperate need. Love the fringe, it adds the perfect finishing touch, and it's fun!
I will link soon but have to say, I LOVE the polka dots with the pom-pom fringe. How fun!
such an adorable pillow!
and i finally posted a sew & tell!
Great pillows....love the trim!!! Hoping to have my machine back in time to participate in the Amy Butler Challenge...
Lovely pillows - they just make you want to lay your head down and read a good book!!
Isn't cluster stuff Awesome??? FYI..Hobby Lobby carries it too :)
Love the pom pom pillow!
i love those pom poms and the polka dots!!!
New favorite pillow...I want to touch it..the fabric, the pom poms....my goodness....beautiful!!
I love your pillows. The beautiful flower print is gorgeous. Perfect for a pillow like yours.
I can't find out how to link up my posting. Please help med.
A- Totally love the pillow, front-back-and especially pom-pom's! But sigh I totally messed up and missed sew-n-tell again. I need to do my post for next week now!
Your pillow looks great! I didn't make it in time to link up this week, but on Saturday morning, I made something for our oldest daughter, and I used white pom-pom fringe, too. It's such a fun embellishment!
Super cute pillow! I hope I have something for sew-n-tell this coming Friday, I've missed a couple of them!
Love it! And I sure wished I'd snagged some of that AB Love line. Hmmm, I might have to start stalking to see if I can find a charm pack anywhere. Your quilt and pillow make me want some for myself!
