Turned out another pillow for myself. I was pretty quick with this one. I like these pillows because they're a great canvas for all kinds of creative styles. I'm going to halt on doing them for myself though. Have too many other projects I need to either start or finish. I like being busy though. I never get bored and keep learning more! Okay, I get a little tired now and then, but I like naps too!

What a wonderful Wednesday!

I finally found time to make something for myself!  The bride in the photo is my grandmother's sister.  We don't know the groom's name or who the other couple are.  I love how the groom's hand was perfectly positioned to hold something like the key I added.  This pillow is on my bed now and looks great!  I'll be making more when I find time again! :)

Yesterday, though gloomy and grey here in Indianapolis, was a wonderful day as I had another visit from my dear friend Jan Zoya.  She's a fabulous artist with unique style.  She gave me a wonderful gift, these shoes.  She made them from a pair of real shoes following a process that was very labor intense.  I was and am in awe.  She brought three different pair for me to see and then choose from.  I'll treasure them forever.

A large project completed with satisfaction!

All three pillow have been completed and for never making pillows before, I'm quite happy with the results! I hope my sister-in-law feels the same. I'll know before too long as they're being mailed to her today.
