Sewing pattern: Embroidered doily throw pillow

March 26, 2019 by Anne Weaver Leave a Comment

Vintage doilies are so sweet and delicate, but what do you do with them? Bev from Flamingo Toes has a wonderful project that makes use of a vintage doily. She embroiders some spring flowers on one and then uses it as focal piece on a decorative throw pillow. She has a tutorial and free embroidery pattern on her blog, so you can make your own embroidered doily pillow. Vintage doilies are pretty easy to find at estate sales or antique stores.
