I have the pattern printed out, have the red thread, and just need to wash the white fabric.
Did you use a stabilizer on the back of the fabric as you embroidered the pillow piece? I like how you used the fabrics around to make the pillow larger.

I didn't know Alex Anderson was into embroidery, so must check her out.
Are you familiar with Mary Corbet? She is one that I have been learning from ....
