Last summer I wrote about being inspired by a pillow I saw in the July issue of Canadian House and Home magazine and decided to design and sew my own version. I wanted my pillow in neutral colours to match the cottage décor so I used linen and canvas. See here. 
This summer, my son requested a Canada Flag pillow for his bed at university – in the “true north and strong” colours.
So I started with this, 
And cut and sewed, 
And ended up with this, 
I frayed the edges, 
And used a striped fabric for the backing, 
Love it! And my son is thrilled.

I like your choice. Be careful Michele as we will all be asking for one
I want one – seriously!!! (minus the frayed edges, maybe…) I see a very popular side business budding here 🙂
You are such a talented gal! (and a patriotic one at that!) What a lovely way to ‘wave our flag!’
Bravo!
Love. Love. Love.
Missy, you could sell those in a minute!
