Triangle Pillow

Does it ever feel like things are just flying by faster than you care for?
It's how I'm feeling right now. 
I never mean to let so much time go by before sharing what I am up to but I do. 
Then it seems hard to share it all.

So I was wasting time  doing research one day out in blog land and came across this and this. I thought it was so cute and decided to try and see if it was as easy as it looked. 
It was. 
I decided to make a bigger one..... someday. 
Jess had given me this gorgeous fabric and I made two pillows. I was thinking about making two more when she suggested that it would be great for the larger triangle pillow project.
So I did.
It was fun!
It's funky!
It's for him! 
He's only smiling because he didn't want to hurt my feelings. He doesn't quite get it.
Grampa tried tempting him with the "fishing" pole. 
It didn't really work.
Mom tossed him on top. 
He rolled off. 
I realize that I stuffed it too much and so I will have to take some of those silly pellets out. Jess helped me the first time around and it wasn't so bad, maybe I'll wait for her help again.

Another school house tunic and pillows

I was looking at our fabric in the shop on Thursday, thinking of another Schoolhouse Tunic. The Ceylon line from Hoffman caught my eye and after getting everyone's opinion, I decided to try it. I really love the way it turned out. I finished it in time to wear it to our big sale yesterday. When I got to work, there was Lizy in her's and then Katelyn walked in with her  awesome version of the Torii Tunic by Serendipity studios. Let's just say, I think our outfits sold a few patterns.... I wish I would have thought to have the three of us in a photo. I grabbed Jennifer right before she left for home to take these for me.
One of the squares of pure green made into a pillow at my sister's request. The stamp pillow is for the father of one of my daughter's friends. On my trip to see Jessica I was carrying this purse. He collects stamps and told me that all the stamps depicted on the fabric  are actual stamps, some of which he has. Can't think of a better person to share fun fabric with.
