Pillow Bed Progress

Pillow Bed 2016 010 (440x330)

One yard of fabric makes a pillow case. When asked for a project, I always make sure to let them know that I will use what I have on hand. I thought it would be fun for Lux to enjoy her pillow bed while having letters and numbers to add some interest. These little kids are quick to catch on. When the six pillow cases are done they are sewn together length wise ready for pillows to be popped into the openings and then buttoned shut. The first pillow and the last pillow will have a strip of Velcro on the length of each. The pillows can be attached via the Velcro for a stand up enclosure, perfect for looking at storybooks with the favorite stuffed animals.  I had no idea going into this how it would turn out . . . a new experience for this sewer.
