weekend these two pillows were created, unfortunately scheduled for Christmas, otherwise they would have already taken place on our sofa ...
Here is the first pillow from a Kapulana and beige canvas material, applied, I found the dark continent of black corduroy, a Yoyo from the remains still a place on the pillow. 
The second pillow, I worked the other way around, and also applied this time 2 yoyos attached ... 
details of a yo-yos, the ap I have trimmed with bold straight stitch in a contrasting color, a decorative stitch additionally fixed nettle Kapulana ... 
the second cushion same procedure, only different yarn and other decorative stitch ... 
the fabric I brought back from Mozambique in early 2007 and I finally dared to cut him, it is / was a Kapulana, the typical clothing of African women. A Kapulana is about 80cm tall and 150 there are many different species, they are bound, even the children in Africa using these "cloths" usually worn for years on the back.
The quality of the material is to be compared with untreated cotton fabric ....
So that was the small post office Monday ....
Snowy Greetings
Steffi, which, despite the good mood this morning nodules NOT tainted ... ;-)
