Halvdräll Pillows
Designed by Christine Jablonski
This accent pillow pattern explores the possibilities of Halvdräll (an Overshot variation with small floats) on an 8-shaft loom. The fronts and backs are woven as continuous yardage, and sewn into envelope-style covers with a few simple seams. With a fully reversible block pattern, you can choose either side to use as your pillow front, or sew one of each. Order a kit.
