Le Freak Granny Chic!
The past few days I have been driving myself insane looking for a craft project to do that didn't involve buying new supplies. I picked out a knitting pattern, only to discover I didn't have the right needles. I went to finish a skirt that I have in progress to realize (like an idiot) that I bought hem tape instead of bias tape.
I had a serious case of itchy fingers with NOTHING to make.
Then I looked at my couch...and saw many sad, sad pillows. Suddenly, I had my A-HA moment!
Taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake on meeeeeeeee!
(((Take on me!)))
Take me oooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnn!
Whoa, sorry. Wrong kind of "A-HA" moment. I digress...
I whipped up a new pillow cover with a vintage doily and some material from my stash. It was such a simple, satisfying sewing project.

The bottom pillow illustrates the heinous cover before (inherited from an old roommate...NOT my choice of colors!)

Much more me, don't you think?

I am happy!
