I recently did some chenille pillows and love the effect. I want to do some other projects but don't have any patterns. Does anyone have ideas? Thanks |

| you could check your local library if you have one available to you, also some past issuses of Sew News had some projects I think. Some simple jackets with not too many seams would likely also work. Instead of doing the seams the normal way you could sew them wrong sides together and either leave them or put a ribbon or bias tape over them to finish them off. I have a book called " New Directions in Chenille" by Nannette Holmberg ISBN number 1-56477-275-6 published by Martingale & Company of Bothell Washington. Did you try a google search? |
