Personalized Applique Pillows

Last week, a friend of mine asked me to make something special for her two precious daughters. She is giving their room a makeover while they stay with Grandma for a few days and really wanted a personal touch for their beds.

I am so happy I was able to contribute to the design plan! I think the fabrics are sophisticated enough to grow with them, yet the applique letters gives a nod to the fact that they are still young girls.

I hope they love them as much as I loved making them!

Scrap Fabric Cuff

I love my new cuff! I found the vintage trim a few months ago at one of my favorite Land O’ Lakes thrift stores.  The center fabric was a remnant piece of home decor fabric from Joanns and the base fabric was left over from my dish towels.  I covered a button with the same blue fabric and made a little loop to hold it together.  This entire project cost me less than $2 and took less than an hour.
