This week I got just enough time in the sewing room while Z wasn't feeling well (thanks for saving it for spring break, Z! /sarcasm) to finish the housecheering gifts I got so close to finishing during last weekend's FNSI. Here they are (click for bigger), presented with a little help from Z herself!
They were so fun to make! Perfect little bites-of-a-project.
The plastic bag dispenser is from a tutorial by Rachel Griffith at Moda Bake Shop.
The pillow might look a little weird because all I have for a pillow form is an 18" pillow, and the case should fit a 20" pillow, so when Tracie fills it it might look a bit more stuffed!
I made the pillow using KarrieLynne's (of Freckled Whimsy) tutorial at Stash Manicure. Well-written and easy to follow, and I have a feeling I'll be making more pillows for our house soon...
I love these fabrics! Charm packs are fun to play with without breaking the bank. :)
SQUIRREL!
