From Table to Sofa

These four pillows were made
 from a vintage 50's set of cotton 
napkins for a card party 
table set up.
To make them larger, I added
 two inches of mitered fabric on 
the fronts.  
There is also a black flat gimp
to attache both fabric elements
together.
 On the back I used a larger check
 just to keep it interesting.
Here is a closer look...
 They don't look old now,
 they look updated.
Nice and crisp.
(They are for sale right now
at The Brass Scale Antique shop
in West Palm Beach.)
