I gotten a lot of questions about how we do our pillows, so I thought I’d share our process & some in-progress pics. (=
First I sketch out a rough pattern design of the character on large paper. Then the kids & I search through the fabric supply in my mom’s sewing room and cut out the various pieces in the appropriate fabric. After I iron the designs down, grandma or the kids appliqué the pillow top. (I can’t appliqué… I’ve tried. I suck at it.)
Then we put in a zipper, sew it all together, and stuff a pillow inside.
Voila! (=
At my "for pay" job I'm a Marketing Manager in the Yearbook industry - it's pretty fun as far as jobs go. But, what I REALLY like to do is spend time with my adorable boys - cooking, painting, creating, and making a mess. We thought it would be fun to share some of our favorite things on this blog. We hope you enjoy reading about our exploits, and maybe even take the time to try a few of them yourself. (=
