Sew your saying
I'm loving the textile take on all the "word art" that's out there these days.
I remember first noticing these felt-applique pillows from this etsy shop when they were featured in House Beautiful a while back.
I was liking the idea of creating something similar but more in my colors (or commissioning the seller to do it).
And have you seen Muriel Brandolini's custom words wallpaper? She created the lyrics to a family's favorite Rolling Stones song and applied it to the walls in all sorts of crazy textures.
Well, I just recently spotted these one-of-a-kind embroidered textiles, many of which use popular song lyrics, from Australian shop Castle and Things.
Some play around with composition and negative space in quite a fetching way.
This one makes me hear John Denver in my mind. (NOT a bad thing, I promise you.)
There are also non-word compositions that still create a little story. this one is called Dream a Little Dream.
These are pricey (in the hundreds of dollars), but they use great materials and could be a wonderful gift (even to yourself).
I like the idea of creating your own felt applique of a meaningful lyric, poem line, or saying, and making a throw pillow or framing and hanging it.
So personal.
