It's the one that's orange with the white chain link going across it. Would that work because you can have it. It's just sitting in my closet waiting for a new home.

If I can't find exactly what I want in the pillow section of a store I go to the fabric napkins. Normally there are a lot of napkin choices in a variety of colors and patterns. I'll buy two and then it is a really simple sewing job to turn both napkins inside out then sew all the way around leave a small opening and fill it with stuffing then hand sew the closing. Plus it's super inexpensive.<BR/><BR/>My living room is actually chocolate brown, white, hints of blue and Orange! So I have many orange pillows in my home. I got awhile ago and can't find any around. This one isn't rectangular, but it has a great pattern and is orange and white. <BR/><BR/>Pillow is <A HREF="http://www.wshome.com/products/p6852/index.cfm?pkey=csale%2Dpillows%2Dthrow%2Dblanket" REL="nofollow">here</A>.High-Heeled Foot in the doorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16510460239869884038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296235624601130259.post-90564223561599979512008-11-06T13:02:00.000-06:002008-11-06T13:02:00.000-06:00I actually used a fabric paint to paint the initia...I actually used a fabric paint to paint the initials on my pillows. I printed the letters in a font I like from the computer, since I was using white fabric I just pinned the letter under and I could see it- but with another color fabric I would draw it on the fabric first and then just paint over the line you made. <BR/><BR/>Fabric paint comes in all colors- you could get an orange pillow and white fabric paint and make any design you wanted.

Did you have your initial embroidered on? I think I may just go without an initial or monogram on this since we have quite a few monogrammed pieces in our house.<BR/><BR/>I saw the pillows you referred to at West Elm, but the rust is a little too red. I want something between bright Hermes orange and a burnt orange. <BR/><BR/>Thanks again!

Then (here is where the genius comes in, LOL) buy some white grosgrain ribbon, iron-on tape and create your own border on the pillow like in your inspiration pic.LindsBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00548424318705008557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296235624601130259.post-46770191124072497632008-11-06T11:34:00.000-06:002008-11-06T11:34:00.000-06:00oops posted too soon- you could always get fabric ...oops posted too soon- you could always get fabric you like and bring it to the dry cleaners and have them sew you a pillow for you- I know the girls at the cleaners I go to are awesome and can seriously sew anything. If you want to try it yourself, its not that hard- I actually put a few instructions on my blog a few weeks ago, that might help. Good luck and post pics when you pick something out!LindsBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00548424318705008557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296235624601130259.post-60251193077491446392008-11-06T11:30:00.000-06:002008-11-06T11:30:00.000-06:00Target!
