Meet Gloria, a stunning addition to our pillow collection! Gloria features mesmerizing ombre layers of light aqua to deep teal, in a classic bargello stitch pattern. She's easy and quick to stitch, and so satisfying! Style her as part of a pillow arrangement; she adds a perfect balance to busier bargello pillows (she's gorgeous with Joni and Songbird).
The Gloria pillow is worked on needlepoint canvas and finished with a fabric backing. This in-depth project will provide hours of relaxing craft therapy and a lifetime of "where did you get that amazing pillow?!" compliments!
Not into sewing or don't need a pillow? You can also frame the finished bargello panel and display it as graphic wall art.
FREE STITCH-ALONG MEMBERSHIP! Purchasing a Joni kit or pattern includes free membership in our Pillow Stitch-Along, where you can access weekly videos demonstrating how to make this pillow from start to finish (including sewing the backing)!
*Please note, this kit will make the bargello FRONT of a pillow only. You'll need to add 1/2 yard of any fabric of your choice to use for the back of the pillow, plus snaps and a pillow form. Basic machine sewing is recommended to attach the backing and finish the pillow, though it can also be sewn by hand.
