My house is decorated for fall, such as it is. I put out the same decorations I do every year. If you want to see some, put "fall decorations" in the search box to the top left. I enjoy fall. The weather cooling off is one reason!
I am thinking ahead to Christmas decorations, so I quilted a large piece of one of my favorite cream fabrics. I am going to make pillow shams to go with my new Christmas quilt. The thread matched the fabric so well that I had a hard time seeing where I had quilted. The blue Mark-B-Gone line is showing the edge of the quilted area. I had to find it by Braille!
Yes, difficult to see on the front. I wanted a subdued design, but this is ridiculous. My husband said I should have quilted it from the muslin side. A great idea, but too late. Anywho--I hope to get the backs put on tonight. I think I'll just put a binding on like I did the other set I made.

I wanted to see the Christmas quilt these shams are made to match, but the link didn't work. Your sham link worked--I love the braided shams. : )
The weather here in New Zealand is turning to the opposite, warming up!
I think your shams will be lovely. So of my customers use muslin for their quilt backs, it really does show the quilting up nicely.
Wishing you a great weekend. My youngest son had his last rugby game for the season....it was nice that they won.
