Woohoo! This a cause for celebration. I have finished my son's pillow. Booyah! To everyone who said I start things and never finish. Anyways, here is the finished product. I am so proud I actually finished and you can tell he loves it. HAHAHA! I have even added a little tag on it with LC.
What to do for my next project? Oh, the possibilities!

turtle pillow for my son!



O.K. So, I have been working on making a pillow for my son. He loves sea turtles. I found this great printed fabric. Now I am embroidering it just for a more personal touch. In case you want to make your own and can't see the stitches here is how I did it. Outline of the shell is done with a chain stitch, inside with a back stitch, eyes are french knots. The waves I hand drew and are stitched with a stem stitch. I will post a picture of the actual finished pillow once it's done.
