It only took me 3 months...

I finally sewed up some pillow covers for the new pillow forms I bought back in the beginning of summer.
I finally used that really fun Japanese button cotton canvas fabric! Yay! I love it. And then for the larger floor pillow I used some clearance linen blend I had on hand. I still have a few more to make, but those pillow forms haven't been purchased.

Saturday morning I decided to do some vacuuming which lead into moving a few pieces of furniture, and then I included Jeff on the action and now we have a completely rearranged/reorganized living room space. I couldn't stand having all his electronics in plain site anymore so I gave him a hutch (where I normally store candles, table linens, vases, knickknacks) to hide everything. That small storage sacrifice was worth it!

So the new space with the new pillows makes me want to make my red and aqua blanket even more.
