Day 4 - Hand Sewn Ornaments

Just a quick post today to share a few of the felt ornaments I've been working on, I love to make these quick projects they involve such a small time commitment that once finished they always make me feel like I accomplished something!

Warmest weekend  wishes!

I LOVE this thing/ AKA ereader cozy

I am absolutely in love with this thing! My sweet, dear hubby picked it up for my birthday and I haven't put it down since. Kobo ereader was just released from Chapters this month and has pretty much sold out everywhere and now having used it I can understand why. But of course thats not the point of this post...ok well partly anyways. Loving my Kobo so much I just couldn't toss him in my bag (p.s. he is now known as kobo jim....don't ask) knowing all the wear he would be exposed to, so I whipped up this cute little cozy in an evening and now he's safe and sound :) and that makes everyone happy right?

New Pillows!

 Soo... it's been awhile and my throw pillows definitely needed some refreshing. I've had them for awhile and they just didn't match our home anymore. I think I'm happier with these new ones...the dogs sure seem to like them anyways lol.  A bit more relaxed and cozy thats for sure, our old ribbon and satin ones were stuffy and itchy and not so cozy.

I have to admit I used a thrifted bed sheet for the base of the blocks and it's sooo soft and worn in perfect for a cuddly pillow and even better for a sunny spring nap ;) I used raw edge circles for the quarters cut from scraps out of my bin and just made a basic envelope back to slide the pillow form in...easy right?
