Wow! I never would have thought moving, quitting my job, and starting school would have put me so far behind with everything. With the move I decided I would really decorate our new place because its worthy of looking great and we are finally allowed to do what we want. I was lucky enough to get a sewing machine and decided to start with an easy project: PILLOWS!!
This is what our lonely couch and pillows looked like before:
Just simple plain $5 pillows we got from Walmart almost a year ago. (Yes I took these pictures on the kitchen counter it was the only space that had good light at the time)
This is what I turned them into:
I searched around the blog world until I had enough ideas to put together what I wanted to do. I also remembered my basic sewing class from 7th grade and started from there. I wanted to be able to remove the pillowcases so if they got dirty I could wash them. I made one mistake though I forgot to pre-wash my fabric. Being new to sewing and everything I guess thats only one mistake on the path to many. I have been able to complete a few more makeover projects for me and for others so keep an eye for them.
