Afternoon Project

Today, I had a free afternoon... that's not rare... but this time I decided to actually do something with it. =)

Now, before I post this picture... I just want all you people out there (basically just my one reader...) to know that sometimes... even when an end result looks shoddy... that doesn't mean that the effort that was put into it was shoddy....

That being said... I made my first pillow ever this afternoon. I chose a fabric in a lovely shade of poop brown and decided... hey, I'd love to put my face on a color like that... bada bing bada boom... I had myself a pillow.


You can barely make out the fine detail... but... what I've accomplished here is pretty amazing. I mean, I DID something with my afternoon for Barb's sake!

Here's a close up of the flower... hand stitched... very poorly hand stitched thank you very much. =)


The good thing was, I had a great time making this and I look forward to working on my sewing skills. Sorry about the pics... I know they didn't come out too well. It was just too much awesomeness for the camera to handle. =)
