What was your inspiration?

Diana Rupp's Sewing Studio Craftsy class inspired me to finish this UFO.

What are you most proud of?

The fact that this pillow is finally finished!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Make sure you have enough fabric to complete the envelope back of the pillow as directed in the course. Because I was using remnants and didn't have enough material, I had to improvise and use the slip stitch (taught later in the course) to close the side seam of my pillow.
