Its FINALLY Finished!!!

So I have been working on my bed for a couple weeks now! And I am so relieved to say it is finally finished!! Of course I couldn't have done it with out my mom who has taught me everything I know about sewing and helped me with this project! And of course my little sewing adventure with Beth! Ha we tried having a sewing (craft) day like back in the old days! But quickly realized that when you each have a baby, things don't go as planned! I think we got the material for one pillow cut out in about three hours!!!! Yes! I could have had this done in about two or three days before I had Riley but it has taken me about two weeks with her!!! Not that I mind, I just have tot take lots of breaks from sewing when she is crying at my feet, or pulling the material away from the sewing machine that I am trying to push into the sewing machine to sew, or spreading the pillow stuffing all through my apartment, or trying to grap scissors and needles from me, etc. (You get the point) But I am so so excited it is finished! I keep going in my bedroom to look at it! I really do appreciate and like things more when I know that I put my sweat and hard work into it! And I think it turned out great! What do you think??? (I did not, however, make the small pillow in the middle, that I bought from Target b/c it went perfectly with everything!!!!)







Now all I need to do is decorate!! Me and Nate are going to make a headboard for the bed, but need to save up a little extra for that, and then do some decorating!!!!

I love the fabrics that you picked out. Have you checked out making a headboard from a door. Send me an email and I'll give you the info on it. Pretty cute - and cheap.
