I’ve been giving little sneak peaks on Facebook and Instagram, so check those out if you want to see what’s coming up.

Envelope Pillow Cover Measurement Guide
Recently, I was sewing up some quick envelope pillow covers and figuring out the measurements for the umpteenth time to cut out the fabric.

Wouldn’t it be much easier than figuring out the math again or digging through old notebooks to find measurements to covers I had sewn before. So, to make my job and yours a little easier next time you want to sew an envelope pillow cover, I’ve made a compiled list.

“It’s not about what it is-it’s about what it can become!”-Dr. Seuss
I took a picture from a book. I gave that book a real good look. I had a challenge in my sight. I grabbed that book and held on tight. No challenge was gonna keep me away. I knew it was time to come out and play. I grabbed my pencil and notepad. I knew had to draw it up real bad. A light bulb went off, in my head. “Hobby Lobby!”, is what I said.
