Vintage Chenille Pillow Covers and Bib


My latest kick is making things out of my stash of vintage chenille. Pillow covers and bibs! Here are a few of my latest designs from a cutter bedspread. The pillow cover opening in the back has vintage chenille too. No, it's not perfect chenille, a few places are a bit thin but it doesn't take away from the wonderful colors and softness of these pillow covers and bib. Wish I had more chenille...dreaming...

Those are really pretty! I love to see old chenille turned into useful things - it deserves to keep being appreciated! :-)

Thanks for the nice comments. I love vintage chenille - it is getting so hard to find these days though...

Warm hugs,
Pam
