Especially when you are a college student! A month is soon right? Anyway, I put the finishing touches on my pillow finally. Apparently being in college and taking care of a sweet little baby takes up a lot of time...who knew? The pillowcase is envelope style back, I think, but I honestly have no clue. I worked on this project with my sister after my dad taught us how to sew and we basically winged it then got a little confused towards the end and asked my younger sister if we could see one of her pillowcases. We turned that baby inside out and bam we finished the pillowcase. After my pillowcase was sewn I started sewing some flower rosettes to add to it. That took forever. I was going to sew them to the pillowcase since I have a baby who will either drool, pee, poop, or puke on basically anything, so it needed to be washable. That wasn't going to happen after I sewed on the first flower because the pillowcase was all sewn and that apparently makes it difficult to only sew on one layer. Basically I continuously poked myself and it hurt...bad. So, I got out some fabric glue and stuck those suckers to the pillowcase. I am hoping I don't need to wash it often, and if I do the fabric glue says it is washable so I am crossing my fingers on that one. The last thing I did was stuff it with an 18 x 18 pillow, but it probably could have used a 20 x 20...oh well. It is just a little bedroom progress, but every time I see it I get a smile on my face since the rest of our bedroom is not so great. Here are some pictures.
That's it, and it only took me a month to post pictures about it.
