What can help you be more comfy as the cold arctic air swoops down across the United States?
A flaxseed pillow made with lavender and cloves that you can heat in the microwave! Pictured above are embroidered outside covers for flaxseed pillows that I made as a surprise for the DIVA's retreat. Don't they look divine?Sulky Rayon 40 wt thread used for the embroidery:
- 568-Cinnamon
- 621-Sunset
- 1021-Maple
- 1263-Red Jubilee
- 1181-Rust
Finished pillow size is 9.5 inches x 5 inches with an inner lining that contains the flaxseed and herbs. I used one pound of flaxseed mixed with 1/4 cup of lavender and about 10 cloves. I'm still experimenting with the herb mixture.
Where did we go for our retreat?
