Fabulous Alexandra Ferguson GIVEAWAY
August 6, 2009
Hello friends. This weekend, I am pleased to showcase the oh so chic, oh so talented Alexandra Ferguson and her gorgeous line of decorative pillows.
Alexandra works in the fashion industry in NYC, so she is well versed in patterns, sewing, and serious style.
Featured several times on Apartment Therapy here, here, and here, Alexandra is known for her super stylish designs created from 100% post consumer recycled plastic bottles. Did you know that every pound of felt is the equivalent of 10 water bottles? So instead of ending up in the landfill, those plastic bottles get turned into this loveliness.
Take a look at some of her original work:
Isn’t she fabulous? I am in love with so many of her original designs, and there are many more.
Want to get your hands on one of her cozy chic pillows?
Giveaway Details:
Alexandra is offering one singular lucky winner a 10 x 14 monogrammed pillow, customized with your initial of choice. Several colors available.
That’s right, just one of these lovelies. You choose the monogram.
To Qualify:
- Visit Alexandra Ferguson’s Etsy shop, and swoon over her handiwork.
- Leave a comment telling us which one of her decorative pillows is your favorite.
Giveaway ends at 8 p.m. PST on Sunday August 9th. The winner will be chosen at random by Random.org.
And by the way, even though she was gracious enough to participate in this giveaway, I simply couldn’t resist her collection, and had to splurge on this one in oatmeal. I cannot wait for it to arrive !
Good luck to you, and have a great weekend.























Oh I love them all!
I especially like the Bud Explosion in Orange and the one in Cocoa, oh and the one in Aqua Moss.
Then there is the Eat, Drink, and Play pillow…awesome!
Oh! Those are sooo cute!!! :)
I really LOVE the Clematis pillow.. its so pretty and simple.
Oh, I hope I will win :)
i love the monograms, but since i got married recently, suddenly everything with a J on it is a must have!
Oh what yummy pillows! I love the CLEMATIS – 16 inch – recycled felt applique pillow.
fabulous! I really like Tree of life- would go great in my bedroom!
The white orchid pillow is dreamy!! love it!
The cocoa and baby blue "BE NICE OR LEAVE" pillow is fantastic!
They are all so beautiful it's hard to pick just one. I would have to go with the clematis coca and white pillow with the giant flower and leaves. It's so beautiful and I love how the flower is jumping off the pillow.
i LOVE the fiery bud explosion pillow, absolutely beautiful
Clematis! Ab FAB! Beautiful pillows, though, and I would love a big C for our family couch. Y'know, for solidarity!
Well, I do really love the monograms, but I also like Privet. It would go nicely in my living room.
I love these pillows.I would have to go with the set that has been posted at the very top of this post. But the funny thing is that i looked on her etsy and didn't realize they were on there. Oh, what a camera and a good set up can do. They just look so cozy on that bench. I also like the Grass pillow and the watering can one….lol. I really do like most all of them..haha!!
Her work is wonderful! Love the ampersand.
How beautiful are those??? And recycled to boot! Thanks so much for introduing us to her beautiful work. I adore the Tree of Life pillow.
CLEMATIS – cocoa and white 16 inch recycled felt applique pillow LOVE IT.

The pillows are phenomenal! I love the Clematis (cocoa base with white flower). Thank you for this opportunity!
I love the "Be Nice or Leave" and "Welcome Home" pillows. And the orchid one is gorgeous.
This isn't easy, but if forced I would have to say the rich gray with the vibrant red leaves. For the monogram, "A" would be my letter of choice. Great giveaway!

Gonna have to go with either "Charlie The Duck" or "Lets Make Out." Love them!!
She has so many lovely prints. I really like the "Orchid – white with veining" and the pure and simple black and white ampersand.
I thought Alexandras' bird selections were wonderful, however…my real fave is the Pink Fan Flower. Its' very unusual, clean in line and is repeated in wall art form. Very very classy!
As a fellow "Etsier", I am thrilled to see any of us recognized for our work.
Congrats on discovering a really talented, cooly insighted, seamstress/ artist.
I LOVE the aqua moss. It is Beautiful!
I love the Be Nice or Leave pillows, but the Let's Make Out pillows make me laugh! :)
They are so much fun!
Love the pillows. Love the monogram, a "B" would be perfect on my bed, would make me want to lie in bed all day!!!!
Also loved the orchid pillow, very cute!
I love the Let's Make Out pillow!!! I need it!!
:)
Oh wow, I loved all of the pillows! But I would say the clematis and the monogrammed three set pillows with the blue denim background are my favorite! Couldn't choose just one:)
Thanks for this giveaway.
I adore the MONOGRAMMED Recycled Felt Applique Pillow! It's classic yet trendy!
She makes some beautiful pillows. I love the Orchid and the Red bud.
I love her designs. Choosing one is hard but a Monogrammed pillow would be my first choice.
Close second and third choices would be Aqua Moss Bud Explosion and Fiery Red Bud Explosion – just beautiful!
Thanks to you and Alexandra for having this giveaway.
I love the monograms, but the California Poppy is so fun and cheerful.
What amazing pillows – they're all fabulous, but since i have a thing for clematis', the cocoa and white clemantis pillow is my favorite.
Oh my goodness these are just darling! I love the Let's make out pillow! The American Flag is perfect for the cottage I wish to own some day and orchid is just beautiful. I would love to have one for these on my entry bench.
I love love love this BLOSSOMS – cocoa pillow. I would love to win a pillow with a big B on it what a prefect anniversary present for myself and my husband.
If I were buying a pillow I'd choose a monogram R for my bedroom. But I really like the laugh pillow because life is just too serious and sometimes we need a reminder to just laugh.

Wow what gorgeous pillows! My favorite is the Ampersand one – it would go perfectly in my living room.
Beautiful pillows! My favorite are BELLA THE FEATHERED FRIEND & WELCOME HOME
Beautiful! I love the orchid pillow.
All of her pillows are so pretty! I think my favorite would be the Blossoms in Cocoa color or a beautiful monogram. And how wonderful that the pillows are made from a recycled product.
Her pillows are so great. I love the clematis ones. Simple and beautiful. Great giveaway!!

I really like the "Bella the Bird" pillow
I've had the fiery red bud explosion cushion in my favourites for ages! I just love it!
oooo!! I like them all, but if I have to pick one I probaly choose clematis pillow.
I love the green\gray "Let's Make Out" pillow! Too funny!
Beautiful pillows! The monograms are fun, I also love the gray with red leaves. Very pretty!
I definitely like the be nice or leave!!!!
I LOVE YOUR BLOG~!

I love the Fiery Red Bud Explosion. Love hints of red in any room! Thanks for the great giveaway.
How can you not love "play" but "let's make out" is pretty cute too!! :-)
the fan flower and the monogrammed ones are my favorite!
I love all her pillows. My favorite is the Clematis, or any of the flower appliqué ones. I would love to have the monogramed one for our bed!
Love the lilac Clematis. Of course my husband would never let me have that one, so I'd have to go with the brown, which is lovely as well.
I love the let's make out pillow in pink! How cute would that look in our bedroom? and it makes me laugh too! :)

What a great giveaway! Alexandra is such an artist!!
Of the pillows currently in her etsy shop I would pick ORCHID – white with veining as my fav. I do love the American flag pillow too.
Do I have to pick just one favorite???? I love all of them! I have to say though, the simplicity and classiness of the monogram pillow makes it perfect! I would love this pillow in ivory with a black "B" on it! :)
hi kate. i dont think my first comment came through. i absolutely love the monogrammed pillow – cocoa base and ivory letter. stunning!
OMG, they're all gorgeous… but my fave would have to be Edward the Bird in cocoa. Awesome!
LOVE THIS
MONOGRAMMED Recycled Felt Applique Pillow ANY LETTER AND COLOR AVAILABLE – Set of 3
I am just making the cut off! Phew! My favorite (so hard to choose!) is the monogramed (E please) pillow in blue with a white letter. What wonderful work! :)
Love FIERY RED BUD EXPLOSION…it's fiery, red and hot — reminds me of my favorite HBO show "True Blood".
I just ADORE these pillows. I love them all, but actually have the perfect bedroom colors to nestle the blue with brown monogram pillow. I could almost decorate a room around one of her pillows — they are strikingly beautiful!
