Project by Miriam Rawson
PRIMO PLAIDS by Marcus are for much more than the coziest quilts & PJs! Here, we've
used them in harvest colors for some great soft-sculpture decorative pumpkins, designed by
Miriam Rawson. The array of colors and patterns makes it easy to create a grouping like this
one. Embellish with green primo plaid "leaves" and real tree branches for an eye-catching
display full of color and texture.
