This pillow measures 7"X7" square shape. The center of this lavender pillow is made of poly satin and is decorated with an exquisite, hand quilted, five petaled satin flower in a rich purple. The purple satin 1/16 inch ribbon which is meant to securely tie your precious rings to the pillow is eight inches long,is a slightly lighter purple and accented on the ends with 3 shiny hematite bead and a matte purple square bead . The center button is hand covered with deep purple poly satin and is ringed with hematite and matte purple square beads that have a slight iridescent cast in an alternating 2-3 pattern. This pillow also has a holding band on the back, which is elastic covered in deep purple fabric, matching the flower, so that small hands can hold tight to precious cargo.
This was the first I completed in the flower series of pillows.  I think it looks like a lily, which is one of my favorite flowers. I sculptured the flowers so they have a bit of a three dimensional effect. Overall, I think it is a lovely pillow. If your theme includes lavender or purple, this pillow would be a lovely addition to your wedding.
