  1. Your pillow tops the PB version any day - it's adorable! I'm doing a little blog reading while it's snowing outside (AGAIN!!) I'm so glad to see that your guy is doing well and you were able to have a little "you and me, babe" time - as we call it.

  16. This is so beautiful, Kathy! I'm so inspired... I'll use my Joann Fabric coupon to try out that special printable fabric. I love birds and a Nesting Pillow sounds perfect ~ You did such a lovely job. (The pink knit pillow is also sweet.)

  21. I love your "Nest" pillow. It is so soft and homey and beautiful. You are very clever and smart. It is much more special that you made it instead of buying it from a cookie-cutter store. Keep creating...

  22. I love your pillow better than PB's. Something homemade is much more special to me!

  24. Love the pillow. I knew you could figure out how to make a "Nest" pillow. Yours is even better than the original. Candy

  25. That pillow is awesome...and would fit sooo well in my home...where did you find the "rose" ribbon trim you used? I love it! Also, is there directions somewhere on how you downloaded fonts, etc? I am new to this craft thing and haven't worked much using the computer for design...I need some help....everything you make ALWAYS turns out great...you are not only very creative...but so talented as well. Blessings.

  26. Kathy,

    It is adorable. Those soft colors are so you. Was it hard to get the print color to match up with the pillow?

    I can't help but notice how nice your workmanship is. The stitching is so nice.

    That sweater pillow is so unique and an absolutely fabulous find.

    Let's us know about the grand baby. Good to hear Dave is doing well.

    Talk to you soon ;)

    This pillow is the CUTEST thing, ever. You are so talented. I DO WISH you'd open an Etsy shop!!! :)

My "Inspiration File" is full of photos of your sweet and beautiful home!! Now I am on the search for a "PIES MAKES EVERYTHING OK"...!! :O)
    Still praying for your Dave!!

  29. Kathy, Your a genius! I loved those PB pillows when I saw them, but just couldn't bring myself to buy them! Yours is so much nicer. You've inspired me to try it! Can you move next door?
