We can never seem to have enough flowers in our house. Or fabric. http://www.makeit-loveit.com/2011/08/full-and-textured-fabric-flowers.html

V and Co: how to: faux pleated pillow

i have a thing for texture. i like it. katie's room has a lot of texture. with ruffles, and gathers, she's got enough pillows in her room (because she steals them after i make them and hoards them on her bed...i just let it go) but the boys? not so much. naturally i would choose to make something for my sons' room that is not on the ruffly side, so what's a mom to do? PLEATS! http://www.vanessachristenson.com/2011/08/v-and-co-how-to-faux-pleated-pillow.html

How to Make a Petticoat

So a few days turned into over a week.

Blind Hem Stitch (with a sewing machine)

First of all…….thank you, thank you for all of the help, advice, personal experiences, etc. with the PC vs.
Sometimes, ideas in my head don’t always turn out as planned. And sometimes, they turn out better…. After running across Sweet Jessie’s Scalloped Garland tutorial a few months ago, I wanted to take the same technique and use it to make a shabby, fun, linen pillow.
