Is there a standard way to measure a decorative pillow?

You might think the answer is yes.

But there isn’t one universally accepted industry standard requiring everyone to measure decorative pillows the same way.

Some measure seam to seam.
Others measure corner to corner.

And when you’re making pillows for your own home—or for a client—that difference matters.

I just published a new blog post sharing 7 costly mistakes to avoid when choosing decorative pillow sizes, including one of the simplest questions you can ask before you cut any fabric.

The computer can wait. My head needed a quiet corner, some colorful fabric, and the hum of a sewing machine. Unplugged from the computer and plugged into my creativity. I highly recommend this RX. 😊💙🧵

I’ve always admired cushions with attached pillow tops. I wondered if I could add an attach pillow top to an ottoman slip cover. I tried it and it worked, but I don’t think I could’ve figured it out without Kim Chagnon of Kim‘s upholstery.

You’ve built your business on hard work. But lately... it feels like hard work is all there is.

Long hours. Tight deadlines. One more project. One more client.

You love creating beautiful window treatments and soft furnishings, but somewhere along the way, you’ve started putting yourself at the bottom of the list.

What if success didn’t have to come at the expense of your health, your joy, or your peace of mind?

Imagine ending your workday with energy instead of exhaustion. Imagine creating beautiful work while also caring for your mind, your body, and your creative spirit.

You don’t have to figure it out alone.

I’ve created a free guide, From Pressure to Purpose: Creating a Healthy, Sustainable Life in the Workroom, to help you make small, meaningful changes that can transform the way you work—and the way you live.

I love Roman shades.
I love linen.
I love linen Roman shades.
I love using sheer voile to line linen Roman shades.
I love adding details to the seams of Roman shades.
For this wide Roman shade, I used a 1/8 inch decorative well cord Europatex in the same and then top stitched it, because why not be different?
What are your thoughts? Do you like this detail in the seam?

Wellness isn’t always about exercise, stretching, or eating well.

Sometimes wellness is simply stepping away.

Step away from the work.
Share a meal. Have the conversation. Listen. Laugh. Say “I love you.”

As creative entrepreneurs, it’s easy to tell ourselves, I’ll make time when things slow down.

But life is happening NOW.

The work will be there when you get back.

The people we love—and the time we have with them—are the real gift.

So this is my wellness tip for you today:

Take time to live NOW.
