A Thomas the Tank Engine pillow for Speedy! I've had the stuffing since last spring when I picked it up at a garage sale, so I'm always happy to use up some of my stash! Speedy loved the pillow, but tonight was asking where his 'Thomas blankie' was. Sorry, honey, that's what I used to make the pillow!! (He was talking about the fabric.)
A Care Bear blanket for Princess--as if Care Bear fabric itself isn't cool enough, the white parts glow-in-the-dark! I used a piece of flannel-ish material for the back. Sewed the wrong sides together, flipped it right-side-out and stitched around the edge again. I sewed around a few of the moons to hold it in place (it doesn't have batting in it or anything.)
Thanks for humoring me by reading this post. :)

Yay! I love sewing posts. I think both look lovely.
I love the pillows. I know our kids love special pillows and blankets made just for them.
Fun! I don't know how you find the time!
Thanks. :) Time--I just let something else slide that afternoon, I suppose. It's refreshing to me to be able to finish something like that. I did run out of bobbin thread while working on Jayleigh's blanket, so who knows when I'll sew something else...
No, I haven't read barn dance. I have a gift card from Christmas for Barnes and Nobles and have been debating about what book to buy for Lucas, and then what to buy for me with it! I will have to check that one out.
