Pillows Galore

Staci and I decided to have a pillow making night since the guys were at a church function.  Lets keep in mind that this will be my first sewing experience since middle school.

Here is Staci trying to do a little pre-sewing research.  You can solve all of life’s problems by doing a simple google search.

Our lovely set up.  We decided to move the kitchen table to the living room so we could watch Grey’s Anatomy, which is getting worse by the week.  Yes Jeremy, you read correctly.  I agree… the show sucks.  Anywhom, we also had to get the perfect snack.  Easter sweettarts!

Sewing away!  Although, I stopped using that fabric because it was poooooop to work with.

Here are our results for the evening!  You like?  And here are the pillows that I made today.  I need to finish closing up 4 of them, but that may be my least favorite part of making a pillow.

I love the ones above.  Those are actually complete and I really like how they turned out!  They go perfectly with our master bedroom bedding. 

We borrowed a table from Jeremy’s parents and decided to put our living room back in order and put all the sewing fun-ness in our spare bedroom/office/craft/one day nursery/whatever room.

Jeremy’s parents didn’t want these pictures that light up anymore, so they gave them to us.  They go really well in our game room and we are pumped about them.  I wish you could tell the parts the light up….but… I don’t feel like trying to do that.  One picture per object is my max.  I don’t like to waste clicks.

Things I am looking forward to:
- Glee coming back in April
- Spring Break next week
- Our pool being done
- Bella’s birthday party

Speaking of birthday party… my birthday is the last day of the month and I am sure you are already trying to come up with ideas for the perfect gift.  Let me try to help you out.  A gift card to Nordstrom because I love my Zella workout pants and want another pair.  Glee Season 1 on DVD would be splendid.
