JACKPOT !!!

A couple of months ago I skinned an old sofa and chair and sent the hides to Robelyn at red.neck.chic. I got a great blog out of the story and a line of purses from RNC named Hogerific. The sofa was a 1920's style with maroon mohair skins.

Well I got my better than just desserts from that hide shipment. RNC sent me a super wrapped present.


The contents were beautifully wrapped in duct tape. What else?

The pillow, made with the sent hides, includes a State of Texas buckle.

The back of the pillow includes the "Do Not Remove" tag.

The pillow has a place of honor in my sun room.

Thanks a lot Robelyn.
