Little Pillows.....


My daughter asked me why I was making little pillows....


Pincushions....


They are fun and easy to make....and who doesn't like a new pincushion?
These will go to a few good homes :)
Speaking of pillows....
I have a collection on a chair in my family room...


This adorable tea pot and tea cup pillow is from Scandinavian Stitches by Kajsa Wikman....

I love this pillow!  And I love that red polka dot...it is a retro dot...no longer in production, but I cling to the tiny pieces I have!  It is a sickness - I'm sure.

We had a very busy weekend with a wedding to attend.  My nephew was married....cousin to my girls.  I never miss a chance to snap a photo of my girls....together...and having fun!


Happy Monday!

I LOVE that teapot pillow. I seriously have a problem with throw pillows. Every time we go to walmart I always get lost looking at the new throw pillows...i always make them cuz they are quick and easy... I have so many and nowhere to put them!

I do the same with my 4 boys. Whenever we are all together (2-3 times a year)I can't resist a family photo.

Mary said...

I'll bet the wedding was beautiful and I hope your family had a really wonderful time.

I love the pincushions! I think I may just have to steal your idea. They look cute and useful at the same time. Great job!

I love the pillow and pincushions! I love the plate the pincushions are on, too--I have a weakness for dishes.

Your girls are beautiful!

Such gorgeous little pillows! I love seeing them piled up like that. The Teapot cushion is gorgeous too. I'd love a teapot just like that pretty one. It's lovely to see all your beautiful girls.

I am just thinking poor bride - with your beautiful girls there to steal the show!

The cushions are gorgeous - big and little! And the plate - you just make everything look so perfect!

Ah, your beautiful daughters!! What amazing eyes they have! And your pin cushions are so sweet! I especially love the photo of the single one with the windows reflected on the left hand side of the plate! Lovely!
