TA-DAAAAA!!!!

Post by Sahari »

The pillow construction doesn't bear scrutiny (hand sewed with homemade piping -- best viewed in quick glances, through squinted eyes) but on the whole I think it turned out kinda purty. I'm happy it is Finished. :whoop:

I call it: Three Year Pillow

Thanks for all the guidance. :wave:

Onward,

Thanks Podo. Three years can never be wasted, not even the 9 months I spent doing 2/3's of it before starting over. I look at the stitching, and I see my life in there. The laughter, the tears and everything in between. ~S

The only thing nicer than reading your kind remarks would be to hear them in person! I look at where y'all are located, and realize that I'm missing a bunch of beautiful speaking accents. :telephone:

I'm not sure you'd detect my Colorado accent :-) but your pillow is amazing, no squinting, full on staring, with my glasses on.
