Since I have lots of hand-me-down vintage linens and doilies, I’ve been collecting ideas for using them in new ways. One idea I’ve seen several times is to use the piece as a-la-mode on a pillow. When I saw this pink polka-dot brown flannel next to this pastel pink table scarf, it was love at first sight! I simply centered the scarf on the cut out fabric, stitched it on, and completed the pillow as usual. Mmmm . . . brown and pink! ♥
Love brown and pink.
I do, too . . . SO pretty together! 🙂 I even have brown towels with pink polka-dots in my bathroom! 🙂
Lovely!

Great idea! I have some old linens that my grandmother embroidered; maybe I could use them this way!
