For this month’s pillow sham I wanted to cross stitch one of my
Mom’s favorite scriptures.
I went to my
stash of craft books that I bought at a second hand book store and found the picture
of the house.
After searching some more I found a fun font to go with my house. I stitched
Joshua 24:15 “...As for me and my house we will serve the Lord” and a cute
little house to go with the saying.
Next,
I sewed the saying onto the middle of a blue and white piece of fabric that I
had cut to 14”x18”.
Then, I cut two rectangles measuring 14”x11”. Hemed one side of each of the rectangles measuring so that they measure when hemmed 9 ¼”. With right sides facing together I laid the hemmed rectangles so that they slightly overlapped in the middle on top of pinwheel square. Then, I pined and sewed ¼” seam all the way around the edges.
I turn sham right side out placed a 12"x 16" inch pillow in the sham.
