Pillow Talk

Just finished this chic little lady.  The brass zipper was originally meant to be invisible but when I threw the fabric on the cushion, the zipper landed in the middle.  It looked pretty good  so the project took another direction and I decided to sew it together like that. 

Almost looks like a purse.

It will be accompanied by these ...

 

that will be covered with these fabrics.

I picked up this Pucci inspired fabric at a reupholsteres shop in Paris. It was sitting in a basket with tons of other left over fabric.  That was at least six years ago and I have never been able to find this pattern again.  I was saving it for the right sofa with the right color. My Kivik sofa in chocolate brown has the right style for this pattern and doesn't compete with it but rather complements it quite well.  The fabric is from Braemore.

 Classic French "matelassé" which has many uses.  This one was previously being used to hide an old "Coiffeuse" that belonged to my husband's family.

All this to accompany my lonely chocolate brown sofa from IKEA.

More photos on the way once the project is complete.
