Tooth Fairy Pillow. Rebel Alliance Cushion. By Linda For my daughter's birthday in June 2005, I decided to create something with the Rebel Alliance logo on it.
I'd initially thought of a purse, but I've made her one of those in the past, and although she's a big fan of the trilogy / trilogies, I didn't know if she'd want to be displaying the fact everywhere she went. :) So I decided on a small decorative cushion instead, two of them actually. It's done in mostly stocking st and worsted weight yarn. It takes a while to do because of the colour changes, but looks great once it's done. Floral. The Story: The Posies Pillow began life as a pullover.
Back in the 1980s when oversized intarsia sweaters were having a heyday, Michele Rose Orne designed a drop-shoulder pullover in vibrant floral motifs. That sweater was one of many stacked on the shelves that surround the walls of the conference room in the Classic Elite office in Lowell, Massachusetts. Pretty as those sweaters might be in orderly, colorful piles, owner Pat Chew had a better idea for a select few. Why not re-cycle them. Northern Motifs Moose. Jacquard cushion. Cushion Cover 1929.
