I have been on a color wheel kick lately, making a variety of them from my Fractured Color Wheel pattern. When I was asked to make something with the brand new Foundation fabric line, I knew a color wheel would look amazing in these fabrics.
A combination of geometric designs and every rainbow-colored hue, this fabric could not have been more perfect to create my color wheel.
And now for my project!
You know how sometimes you’re walking down unused railroad tracks and you spy a rusty pile of metal wire and you think to yourself, “if only I had a rainbow-colored pillow to rest my head for a minute while I sit here in the sun?”
Then you’re not alone! I had the same exact thought while carrying this pillow down the unused railroad tracks in my neighborhood! Check it out:
If you follow along with me on Instagram, then you’ll know that machine sewing isn’t exactly my forte or my love. But look what I did…I added a zipper to my pillow cover! This is only the second zipper I have ever sewed…ever…so this is kind of a big deal for me!
The teal and lime green are two of my favorite colors/prints from this line and so I wanted to use both of them in my project!
Here’s a close-up of the embroidered center of my color wheel. It doesn’t get better than beaded triangles!
And if you’re curious what it looked like pre-pillowed and pre-embroidered, check this out:
I just love a good color wheel!
