Memories to Heirlooms |
It was a privilege and pleasure to create heirloom pillows from Diane's Dad's ties. She told me, "Dad lived his faith and, for Sunday worship, he was old school; dress pants and shirt in a nice jacket and tie, no casual dress for him. Mom often commented about his tie choices because they always clashed with his jackets. You know she was right." I love hearing these stories, and it helps inform how I create each piece. Once we decided on a design, I got to work. Creative ProcessWe decided to use one of his shirts as a background for each pillow. I created four groupings of ties, one for each pillow and embroidered his initials for the center piece. The necktie on the back clashed with the ties on the front, a nod to his fashion sense. Finished HeirloomsI hope these pillows provide comfort and fond memories of this wonderful man.
