Pillow Talk

Okay so I'm joining in with the fun over at Shanty 2 Chic and the "I made it without my Hubby" link party.

I'm also joining Charity over at Fresh from the Cheri Tree for Finished Object Friday.

Okay so remember yesterday's post about Love inspiration, well I was inspired!
I got out my button can and started rummaging for some material to make the button heart pillow I found over at Kate's Nesting Spot. Okay so I didn't have enough buttons to make the heart so I settled for a letter L to represent Love then I remembered that my last name was Leslie so it works either way!! I'm so smart, yea right!

Anyhow, I sewed the buttons on continuously so there weren't very many start and stop places and it actually went pretty fast. I watched some online news clips and then before I knew it I was finished. i LOVE it!!
