Scrap Pillow Cover

Sarah, here. How are you all? It's been a while since I've posted a blog. Life's been filled with lots of busy things: like work and running and selling our house in Arizona and a growing toddler and every once and a while the chance to sew.

Last week I had a free evening, and after putting Sophia to bed, started making this scrap pillow cover. I sat at my sewing table listening to a book on tape, letting my mind wander as I randomly pieced together fabrics from my scrap bucket. It was perfectly relaxing:-)

After I'd pieced together a fairly large square/rectangle, I used my rotary cutter to cut it down to a 21" square. I used white fabric to back it and made a 20x20 pillow.




 Couldn't get a smile out of this little grump this morning.

    I was wondering what you were planning to do with your scrapped project the other day - it came out great! :-)

    SO CUTE! I love using scraps instead of buying new fabrics to make projects like this. Great job!
