The pillow cover is another example of what I do when the mood strikes.  I ribbon embroider.  Mostly I embroider on towels or a top that I have knit.  This is the third pillow top I have made.  I used various widths of ribbon and some beads as well as one golden butterfly button in the upper left.  This is not my pattern.  I went by a project in the book Splendid Silk Ribbon Embroider by Chris Rankin.  I gave it away in August and I need to made one for me.
