I finished the ring-bearer's pillow over the holiday weekend.
I'm pleased with the overall result. I hope the happy couple are.
The pearls were a compromise when I couldn't find what I wanted for the seam. I like them now that it's done. It certainly was easy.
I'm still not quite sure about the corner berry dangles. I added them last and with separate threads so they can easily be removed with no sign showing.
The same for the ring ribbon. Once untied, it will just pull out.
I made the holder ribbons a bit more secure--but they can be cut off at the pillow, under the pearls, and no one will know they were ever there.
This will most likely be my last post for a while. Right now I'm managing a two week summer school for 80+ East Asian professors and Ph.D. students. Once that's over, I'm getting a knee replaced. I may be out and about, but I don't see me doing much picture taking for a while.
Thanks for reading. I hope to be back soon.

The ring pillow is gorgeous. Lucky couple! I like the corner strawberries and think they finish off the pillow beautifully. All the best for the next wee while, especially the knee surgery.
