My DIl wanted a couple throw pillows covered, so we went to A&E to get fabric. That's where we met Kim and Karen as I posted about before. Here is one of the pillows before.
And here it is after. Since the fabric was regular cotton, I used some interfacing to give it more stability and I think it helped a lot. The back opening is velcro. I like the way it turned out.
Abigail is definitely Grandpa's girl, but last night I got some good cuddles in. We had our DIL and Abigail over to the camper for supper. DS is working 4 days in a row - 12 hour shifts. After we ate, she climbed in my lap for some good cuddling. I was very happy and got DH to take a few pictures. It was a very nice evening.
Only 3 more days here and then we go home. It's good and bad.
Darling picture of the two of you!

I am sure you will enjoy being home again, but I am also sure it will be hard to leave.
That is a great picture, she is a real cutie! The pillow looks great, it really adds a splash of color.
ReplyDeleteShe is the sweetest looking little gal! Love those cuddles.
ReplyDeleteThat throw pillow has a whole new lease on life. It is gorgeous!
I have a feeling Abigail is going to miss you two when you come home, but I'm sure the reverse will be true too. She's such a cutie! ---"Love"
