Pillows

Thanks to sites like Pinterest and various craft-astic blogs, I am bombarded with amazing projects that I would LOVE to attempt.  I probably will never tackle most of them 1) I lack patience - just ask my girls! and 2) I truly don't have the time.  Besides, I am pretty happy to pay for things rather than make them. Except for pillows. I have a fondness for making pillows.  Of course, it's no surprise, since sewing a pillow takes absolutely no skill, and satisfies my need for instant gratification. They make great gifts for friends or family and since I tend to change my mind and style frequently (my husband would call it annoying), it's a easy way to play with fabrics, colours and textures.

Next time you are on the hunt for a throw pillow, look at the price tag, then go home and make one instead!
