Oh, that’s the most beautiful hand sewn pillow I’ve ever seen! I’d love to make one of those myself. So lovely!

anything Houses is special with me. I make 3 dementional one from plastic canvas as well as in quilts,embroidery, and applique. Isabel’s here and on the photo site are so special. Gives me ideas, such as the rick-rack as water. Clever!

Wow! I would love to be able to do something like this. Very inspiring.

Oh my goodness, what a gorgeous pillow! Loved the mixed fabrics and styles, and I think I might give something like this a shot as a way to commemorate the street my parents are moving from.
This is so beautiful. Lisa L.

THIS is my favorite of the entire week! Beautiful!
what a beautiful cushion such detail i love it
Lovely pillow – one of the most inspiring things I’ve seen for hand sewing. Oh – for more time!
I’m a fool for rickrack, so the water grabbed me! This is darling!!!!!!!!!!!!
I really like this idea. The handwork is quite intricate, too.
Nice photo and excellent work.
Thanks for another neat idea.
I especially love the combination of applique and hand embroidery. So old-fashioned yet so fresh.,
Okay – NOW I’m inspired. This is adorable! And such attention to detail … LOVE it.
I LOVE this pillow, all the detail, the little clothes hanging out on the line. Thank you for sharing this and I’m off to check out her flickr! LOVE,LOVE,LOVE it!!!!
I love this pillow, great idea!
What fun pillow. Love the houses and sailboat especially.
Well done for creating something so lovely. I hadn’t thought of putting holidays on a cushion before. It feels like something that you could make up with left over bits and bobs from the workbasket too. Such a fun idea! x
This is so beautiful! I love the scene and all the cute fabrics and stitching! This pillow has been one of my favorites for a long time!
incredible! just love it…
The clothesline just kills me! So sweet.
I just spent about an hour going through all your Flickr photos, Isabel. Your work is just stunning. The details are just delightful. Little things like the couching you do to create a clothesline (instead of a chainstitch, which is what I would have done)–so clever. I love your use of different textiles. I’m wondering how you use knits and keep them from fraying?!
This is so cute – and what talent!
That has to be the cutest thing I’ve ever seen!
So incredibly beautiful and perfect attention to detail.
I love this pillow, especially the wash line. Whenever I see washlines it brings back memories of when I gre up, hanging all the laundry on the line on the farm. I still hang out clothes every chance I get. Love the fresh smell of the sheets when I put them back on the bed.
This is absolutley stunning love the washing line I can almost smell the freshly washed clothes
