I did.
Twenty minutes well-spent on Sunday afternoon resulted in this cute pillow. It features another doily made by my great-grandmother or her sister. I love incorporating these into my house.
This was very easy. I just carefully pinned the doily in place on the bright blue cotton fabric. And then stitched around the outside ring of the doily -- not all the way around the scalloped edges, but just inside them. Does that make sense? That left the edges free to curl up. I think that's kind of cute.
Someone really wanted to be in these photos. Guess who?
The back is just a piece of scrap fabric I had laying around.
The inspiration for this came from Pinterest, but I apparently didn't pin the original. Nor can I find it now. Oh well, thank you Pinterest for your endless inspiration!

This is really pretty, and I love that you left the little scallop edges to curl up. The doily really pops against that shade of blue.
