Oh, I am dragging bootie this week. Maybe the cold weather and snow are finally getting to me. Who knows. I did manage to finish everything from last week's post and am pleased with it, although one of the projects was not what I had envisioned. The first picture is Bee Mine by Lizzie Kate. I had originally planned on putting pink hearts in each corner of the pillow, but then opted for these buttons instead. I found them in a jar of buttons handed down to me that use to belong to my grandmother. I still need some work on stuffing pillows because they never seem to look just right, but I am happy with the overall look of this pillow.
Below is my finish of I Fight Like a Girl by Sharon at It's Daffycat. I had originally planned on this being finished as a flat fold, but I had technical difficulties and ended up having to go this route with my finishing. I might end up restitching this one again at a later date and attempting the flat fold again - just depends.
Thankfully this week is about over with. I am not sure if next week will be much better, but I can always hope for the best. I want to thank everyone for the kind words about my last post. The comments are much appreciated. Thanks for dropping by. Until next time......

Oh, I love your little pillow and the buttons are just perfect! Very lovely finish!
Awww, you stitched my design and finished it so cute! Thank you!!!
Love your finishes! I tried my hand at a flatfold and will not ever show how that turned out. lol
Have a great weekend!
Your pillow is adorable! I think you were right to use the buttons you did. Stuffing pillows is hard for me too - they never seem firm enough. I think yours looks fine. I like how you have attached the pink design to your purse. How are the glasses doing?
I love your pillow. The colour of the fabric is perfect. I'm trying to muster up the courage to attempt a pillow, hope it turns out as nice as yours!
Love your stitching !!! Giggle at Fight like a girl design! Great job on the pillow !
