In a creative frenzy my mom whipped up this gorgeous, randomly pintucked silk pillow. She opted for pintucks because a plain silk pillow (made from a silk remnant) would have left her with an awkward strip of silk and we don't waste silk in our family. Sadly, I have no tutorial because my mom & I were at opposite ends of the province while she was on a creative roll but take a look at the photos below for some inspiration for your own pintucked pillow - and then post a tutorial ;)
A couple close-up photos for you ambitious DIY'ers who will actually give this a whirl (and not just ogle things, like I too often do):
