    Beautiful work. I (also) could not understand most of the words but could follow the visual well.

    When I was pregnant with my second son about 47 years ago, I made several pillows using this method. But I think it was just called smocking. It is fun and turns out so pretty. Thanks for reminding me about this. I may try it again.

    Never knew that was what it was called. I used to do that in high school. My grandma and her friends in her camping club did it. We used 1" gingham print and made sunbonnets. That was over 40 years ago.
