Backside of LHN pillow
Denim jeans/red check homespun cotton
I used the little coin pocket on the back for a pair of scissors to ride around in.... Kinda different, hunh??
A Prairie Year by The Prairie Schooler (circa 1986)
"Liberty" shop freebie by Lizzie Kate (circa 1999)
Then I decided to make a mini pillow to tuck into the heart pouch of the Prairie Schooler "A Prairie Year" I had seen someone else do....tied it up with bandana trim.... My "Liberty" pillow (Lizzie Kate) needed a few little buttons to keep her simple enough....
I've had Patriotic songs swirling in my head all day.... "With liberty and justice for all !" Hoping you all have a song in your heart and a prayer on your lips to honor those who fight and have fought for this wonderful thing we know as FREEDOM... Peace, Faye

What cute finishs!!
All the finishes are gorgeous but I *really* love the LHN piece and your use of denim. Using the pocket to hold scissors is genius.
I love your patriotic finishes! That is so clever to use old jeans for finishing, and the pocket in the back is very cute! You are such a talented lady!
Very cute!!! I am with the other gals, might have to steal your jeans pocket idea! you are so clever!!!!
Cuuuuuute!!!! Omg, I bet we see that back blue jean pocket copied a lot, it's an adorable idea!!
Everything is so pretty :-)
Love all your finishes Faye. The denim pocket is so cute. You are so creative.
I love how you used the denim pocket! These are all lovely finishes.
Wow! Your pillows are just gorgeous-the denim idea is amazing,

Fantastic finishes! What a clever idea to use the jeans--so neat!

Faye you are so creative! And we are in the recycle mode so a great use of old jeans (which I know we all have some on hand). Thanks for sharing your finish...it looks like many are going to use your idea! Enjoy the weekend. pj
How cute, creative, and festive! Great finishes!! Only a couple more weeks, and you'll be footloose.
Love the denim pocket finish!!!
Me, too! I love the jeans pocket idea. I used to make purses from old jeans and used the pockets to tuck things inside, but to use the pocket for scissors on the back of a pillow is a fabulous idea. You're such a trendsetter!
Your jean pocket idea is fabulous - great finishing ideas !!!!!!:)
Awesome finishes Faye! Very patriotic!
Just to echo everyone else' comments, the LHN jean pocket finish is so cute and clever. I have this chart and really must get it stitched. I want to make the necklace too. Just might be the thing to work on today .....
again, great finishes!
Very cute finishing!
love your finishes! reusing old jeans, what a great idea!
Faye :>)
These finishes are amazing. How original and creative. I love the idea of the little pocket in the jeans being used for scissors - what a great way of recycling.
Your work has inspired us all :>)
I've been finishing today too - something I put off for as long as possible :>)

Cute finishes!
Hooray for the Red, white and blue!! Very nice finishes.
I can't wait to dig through my mending pile to see if I have a pair of jeans to repair......that may have been in the mending basket so long they no longer fit so I can do this too. Neat idea and nice finish.
You are just too clever! Cute...cute...cute!!
Such creative finishes, I love how you've recycled the denim!
Your finishes are so cute and so creative.
I could hardly wait for the post and was not
disappointed at all.
What is the design in the background? Looks like one I may want to purchase.
Can't wait for more.
What fabulous finishes! LOVE them all!
Super nice finishes, love the pocket for a pair of scissors.
Great finishing ideas! Everything turned out just beautiful!
Love these finishes - so creative!
