Cherry Blossoms Pillow

I used my cherry blossom design that I created a few years ago for this pillow. This is one of my first embroidery designs that I created. I was inspired by the cherry blossom trees in the neighborhood. Every year when Spring rolls around the cherry blossom trees bloom. By the end of May the air fills with pink and white petals as they float to the ground. It looks like it is snowing in shades of pink. 






This pillow uses two rows of pink ribbon running vertically dividing the pillow into sections. The cherry blossom design is embroidered onto the tan cotton pillow. I added single cherry blossoms to the top of the branches and floating them down the front to make it look as if they were falling off the tree. This technique creates a 3D effect with the cherry blossoms.
