Three months later...

I'm so sorry it's been an embarrassing THREE MONTHS since I posted! Truth be told, I just haven't been sewing. Sad! My little guy turned two and he's into everything, all the time. He's a climber and a risk-taker and I can't keep my eyes off him for long. He also looooves machines, so if my sewing machine is out, he wants to play with it, push buttons, and take things apart. NOT very relaxing!

Anyway... I did make something this week during naptimes. Nothing major, but a cute little pillow for a cousin-in-law's birthday. It's the same design as my old favorites (here and here), but a little bit smaller (15 inch square).
Her two oldest kids picked out the fabrics and I added the purple leaf for her youngest who wasn't here to help but who loves the color purple.
I also have a quilt in the works, although progress is slow with only naptime to work on it. I'll have pictures of that up soon so hopefully the blogging dry spell will not continue.

  1. Darling pillow! Maybe the little guy can learn to sew some day?

  2. I think those who know you understand that you have your hands full with little ones. I'm impressed with all you do get done. I love this pillow - a great use for scraps too and I love how you let the kids pick the fabrics which makes it more special.
