Lessons in Creativity | Jenny Kae Parks | Runtime (8 min)


Have you ever made a test block and wondered what to do with it or made a few extra blocks “just in case” and needed a project for them? Jenny took four block Z’s and turned them into a pillow with a decorative ribbon in the center. She demonstrates how to embroider decorative stitching on the ribbon with your sewing machine for a bit of extra flair, then talks about color choices of ribbon and thread to match the fabrics.
