May Bee Island Batik Pillow

Here I am just making it under the 

wire for the Playful Pillows 

challenge for May.

But I did it in just the nick of 

time and I am so excited to 

show it off to you. 

It is made with a variety of different 

Island Batik fabrics.  

I used several different colors from the 

Paisley Dot collection.

The pattern is from my 

May Bee Banner.

I added a Flying Geese

around the edge to make it 18 1/2" square. 

I used Aurifil Black thread to 

applique stitch around the flowers 

and the bee.

It was the first time that I had

not matched the thread to the applique, 

and I really liked the look of it.

Join me next month for the 

Challenge. 

It should be a lot of fun!

I just love a good challenge.
