Happy Birthday Ma!

It's my beloved Ma's birthday today. Made a huggy ruffle pillow for her. When I saw the Ginger Tiles print from Sandi Henderson at Lovemelots, I see my mother's name printed all over it heheheh ;P. Used the Ginger Tiles for the front side and Amy Butler's Memento in Burgundy for the ruffles & for the back side of the pillow.




Ties for closure



I was inspired by the way Rozi personalises pillows for her customer (you can read about it here), so I did the same with this pillow. But since I don't  have an embroidery machine, I just used the alphabet stitches available on my machine. It may not be as pretty as if it was embroidered but I love it :D.

As for the pillow case, I fell in love with the one made by lazyorganizer.com. However, Idid not use the measurement given as this pillow is a little smaller than the normal sleeping pillow. I made this 20" x 16". Oh..and I also skipped the quilting part (as I have yet to master that ;).
 
 

And...I also made a matching birthday card for her too. Can't wait to give Ma her present. Hope she's going to love it ;).


Dearest Ma,
Happy birthday!
Kami doakan Ma  diberikan kesihatan yang baik, dipanjangkan umur, dimurahkan rezeki dan
sentiasa didalam rahmat& keberkatan Allah didunia & akhirat.
We love you Ma!

Update : This pillow is entering the Blogger's  Pillow Party for January 2011 hosted by Stitched in Color.

  5. Thanks Ayu :)
    Jatuh cinta pandang pertama dgn kain Garden Tiles tu. Bantal bukan standard size, kecik sikit so guna 2 x 1/2yd for the main panels. Yang lain2 tu scrap pun cukup.

  6. So pretty, but the rules do require that you create a NEW post to enter the contest. I'll have to delete your pillow now. If you do a new post, please add yourself back in!
