I did have one small happy result though. I wanted to make two extra pillows for our new outdoor patio furniture. I found a pack of 4 napkins at Target. They just happen to measure 20" x 20", and what do you know but Joanns has pillow inserts that are 18" x 18". PERFECT!!!
It only took Stella and I about 10 mintues to do. It honestly took longer to get my sewing machine out and set up. I really liked them outside, but in the end I decided to use them in my family room. Maybe I was just in need of some happy pillows in the house on a dreary weekend. (They're a bit more yellow than they show in this last picture.)
We have had a few other successes lately... 2 batches of raspberry jam, 2 batches of strawberry, chocolate ice cream, and lemon sorbet. YUM! Maybe we'll just stick to the edible projects.

Not sure if Blogger ate my comment or what, but I was just trying to say that I love the print on your new pillows! I'm thinking of doing a little mini-makeover like that and I like your idea.
Also: homemade jam. Yum!
