Wild Hair

i got a wild hair today, and ran with it. thus doing, however, completely trashed my house. i wish i would have captured what used to be the floor, but is now a sea of toys too small for rowan to be around. i forgot the couch too...covered in laundry...nothing out of the norm.

in between sewing projects, i made row some baby food - sweet potato and squash with flax seed and a hint of cinnamon and nutmeg. nothing's too good fo my bebe. yeah that's right.

the dining room looks like this. i mean, worse than this. a picture cannot fully capture what has happened in there. cutting into a pillow i didn't know had feathers in it should pretty much explain it.

Photobucket

first, i whipped up these beauties. here's the deal. i've had the fabric FOR EVER. i just keep waiting til i can do them right, buy trim. well, that's never going to happen. so today, this wild hair
sprung up, and now i have oodles of pillows, simply sewn, no frills, stuffed with old pillows i cut open and.....DONE!

then i added a little color to our all white, first sheets we ever bought 9 years ago, boring bedroom.

Photobucket

how will i arrange them?! so many options!

Photobucket

all the random fabrics really hit it off together.

i also scored this $9 end table from goodwill the other week. it needs love.
