Tutorial: Mirror, Mirror Pillow

Roseann from Rosebud's Cottage is back with a blogging design ring tutorial!

She's sharing her design for the "Mirror, Mirror Pillow" using the bold Fashionista fabrics by Ro Gregg. If you've ever considered doing something a little less "by the book," we think you'll love Roseann's asymmetrical project. A little bit of piecing, a little applique, and a whole lot of fun!


Before we pass you over to Roseann, one more thing--read down through to the bottom of the post to see how to enter the giveaway!


Here's Roseann:

When Fabri-Quilt sent me the yardage of Fashionista, I knew I didn't want to make the pieces too small. They were all so cute! I was getting my hair cut and my stylist handed me a mirror to show me the back ... and that's when it hit me about how I could use the fabric ... especially the one with the faces. I love how the faces look in the mirror. The pillow is big and looks great on my bed. Now I guess I need to make a quilt to go with it!

To make this 20" square pillow, you'll need the following Fashionista fabrics:


1 fat quarter of the mottled red

1 fat quarter of the faces print


1 fat quarter of the lipstick print


1 fat quarter of the shoe print


1/3 yard of the mottled black


3/4 yard of the mottled red/black for backing

Head over to Roseann's blog for a few additional close-up photos, some helpful tips, and a chance to win a fat quarter bundle of the Fashionista collection!

Are You a Fashionista?

How many pairs of shoes are in your closet? 
*Add 2 points for each pair of heels.
*Add 3 points for each pair of heels that is 3"+ high.

How about lipstick? Do you have a go-to favorite, or a drawer full of hues?

If shoes, make-up and style are your thing, you're going to love Fashionista, Ro Gregg's latest line. 

Pure drama in red, black and white 

 Lipstick, a girl's best friend.

 Or is it shoes, a girl's best friend? (Okay, we know it's diamonds, but shoes are a close second!)

Paired with four Marblehead blenders, these prints would be perfect for a cosmetic bag, a clutch to go with a LBD (little black dress), or even a shoe bag.
