I stumbled across some pink and brown fabric this afternoon and set out to turn it into a picture pillow for the nursery of a friend's baby. After stumbling over my basket of stabilizers while trying to embroider her name onto a ribbon I decided it was time to do something about those stabilizers. Here's what came of it:
A nice little holder for my stabilizers, fusible webbings and even a pouch for vinyl that can hang over my sewing room door.

One of the pouches put to use.

And, once my sewing room was cleared of stabilizer clutter, I came up with my original project.
A picture pillow.
