Replacement pillowcase: FINISHED.
I went with the hand of glory for a motif because it was thought to paralyze or put people to sleep, and what's better for a pillow?
This is the most beading I've ever done in a project and it was really satisfying.
The rhinestone trim though? A real nightmare. Hated it. Tedious. Awful.

The quilted progress pride pillowcase is finished! Finally used all those fancy decorative stitches my sewing machine has. They are indeed very decorative. First time actually finishing a quilt and being happy with it. Yes, it's a little bubbly and wonky, but I don't care. Because it's a pillowcase, nobody would notice if it were all perfectly neat. The filling is a cobbled together bunch of floof from all the pillows my dog has torn up in the past. Don't worry, she won't get this one.
Based on my own pattern, which is in turn based on the progress pride flag design by Valentino Vecchietti.

Finished the next pillow! It's about 50-50 embroidery and beading this time. Since the colors have been pretty flat on this one, I wanted to figure out a way to add variety to the mandrake without going full blended detail.

Ok, so I have this beautiful hand embroidered pillowcase that is older than my Abuela’s abuela (according to the unreliable source known as my Abuela). But it for sure DOES come from her side of the family. It has this Gregorian Birthstone poem written on it for November (which btw is when I was born 👻).
“Who first comes to this world below,
In dull November’s fog and snow,
Should prize the topaz amber hue,
Emblem of friends and lovers true.”
The pillowcase also has a star in the upper left corner with the planet name “Mars” embroidered. And the pillowcase is decorated with mums the birth flower for November. I’ll reblog eventually when I get better lighting so I can take a photo of this pillowcase.
The point is, I think it’s really amazing that something so old from my family is passed down to me, and it specifically is for a November baby who is a Scorpio (because Scorpio in old astrology was ruled by Mars). Someone cared about astrology in my family on my Abuela’s side! Thats so cool! Cause I knew my grandpa’s mom’s mom was an astrologer, but the curiosity of the stars and planets was also on my abuela’s side!
