Pillows for the girls!

In my effort to make something everyday until the baby comes, I've completed two pillows.  I'm also counting putting meals in the freezer as "making something" so I don't go crazy knitting and sewing and such...

This brown and pink polka dot pillow is on Cadie's bed.  It was a super easy envelope cover for a pillow we already had - I did the whole thing this morning.


This one is on the sofa in the baby's room and it definitely took more effort.  I pretty much followed the tutorial here.   It's cute, but I'm having doubts about how it looks in the room.  I may end up taking it apart, removing the ties, and putting a bird applique on the front.  We'll see...

More pillows to come soon...
