Great pillow!  I remember learning about Piet Mondrian in my college Architecture elective, my project for that class was to create an art piece in his style.  I would love to have it for my boyfriend who needs a pillow for his chair in the home office!

I would be proud to own it. I would carry it with me just about everywhere I go.  I would put it in my truck in the event that I can nap while someone else drives and all who pass by can see it. I would take it to work so I may grab forty winks between meetings as well as decorate my ugly black computer chair so all who pass by may envy me for having it. I would tote it to my parents home for traditional Thanksgiving dinner so that I may nap on it after a terrific turkey meal on the couch (assuming I make it TO the couch...) Dad would try to snag it from me before I left because of the fabulous design. I have to admit that it WOULD look great on his leather recliner... *sigh*

This would be awesome! This would definately be a wonderful item to add to my soon-to-be solariumesque addition after the house sale closes this friday!

Very lovely! Good luck to all! I would love to have this creative little pillow!

Oh this would definitely be a lovely addition to any creative space! Cheers!

I'd use it to add some class to my crappy college apartment!

I'd give it to my friend. He had painted a Mondrian wall in his old house, but had to move and is now living in an apartment where he is not allowed to paint. He misses the wall and I'd love to surprise him with a little piece of it for his couch.

 

Here's a picture

My rather large living room is separated into 2 areas, red area for reading and blue area for tv & conversations. The colours in the Mondrian pillow are great for either area and would be the perfect touch!! When I get the book, I'll make several, in both the original colours shown and in variations.Thanks for all the inspiration!!

the book/series sound great!!  and love the pillow too!!!!

Hey! I love it.  I would use this pillow in the living room, it needs some color.

The book looks so beautiful! I cannot wait to get my hands on it. Love the colorblock pillow too!

Looking forward to the release of Make It!  Not sure where it will be on full display though - new home and new furniture are in my future - so for the time being it would be safely stored away and shown off for special guests....

thin may be in, fat is where it's at, but...Square is There!!!
