I have one last project for Thanksgiving before moving on to Christmas. But, this project is one of those “oops” projects! Last weekend my husband and I went to our cabin for a few days, my husband went hunting on our family property while I worked on projects at the cabin. I got a lot of things accomplished and I was feeling pretty good about myself, until I got home and discovered a mistake in the pillows that I had made!
I made these pillows out of this fun canvas chevron print. They are 18″ square, I just cut out two squares for each pillow and sewed all around the edges leaving enough room to turn them right side out. I cut the glitter vinyl out with my silhouette machine and just ironed them on…and they look really cute…but…this is what I wanted the finished product to be:
I had three pillows, with the gray one saying-“In All Things”. The gold vinyl did not show up as much as I had hoped it would…and in fact it must not have shown up well at all…because I did not even notice this until I was taking pictures!
I have no idea where the “I” in things went! 
So for now…I have two pillows that say “Give Thanks” :)
I need to cut another “I” and iron it on, but I have not done it yet. So I guess that my great working weekend was not as successful as I was thinking it was.
I hope that you have a successful weekend and that your projects turn out a little bit better than mine did! It is not a total failure, just a setback. :)
Thanks for visiting today!
Yay! I’m not the only one lol……I have issues also with the iron on vinyl peeling off…….uggggg, what am I doing wrong???
I just love chevron stripes and these colors are just great!
Sami, thank you so much for taking the time to write your kind comment. I love chevron stripes too and just could not resist that fabric when I saw it! Thank you for your kindness and your support…I appreciate both!
