So far "summer" is looking pretty promising.
Yesterday and today I completed #3 on my list of summer goals -- make a yellow pillow!
It wasn't easy. After at least an 1hr and a half of trying to get the bobbin into my Mom's old sewing machine I finally got the thing working. I ended up calling my sister for help and watching at least a dozen You Tube videos on how to do it! I may or may not have cried.
At least I know how to use it now!!
Since my first yellow pillow was such a success, I decided to just keep the machine hot and whip out a few gray pillow covers. The large pillow in this picture is actually very red...bwhaha...not any more!!
The fabric I really really like is very $$ so I opted for the less, still nice variety this time. I thought that since I've never sewn anything before it might be smart to go cheap just in case I mess up!
I'm very proud of them....just don't look too close at the bottom seam :0)
