My daughter's pillow is finished. She can choose to not use the pillow form if she would rather have a wall hanging. She made this when she was much younger without any prompting for me. The kit was a gift from my mother, I think.
So it is fitting that I used some upholstery fabric my mother gave me for the backing. I used the pair of jeans I saved last week for the upper flap. I didn't want to use more upholstery fabric because the patterns would clash with each other.
Random picture of the day: dog. Since the floor matches the pillow, I have to show it to you first.
I made some HSTs for the Garden Mosaic quilt. It is just a test to see if I can handle it. So far, so good.

Monday Making
Slow Sunday Stitching My daughter did most of the slow stitching, putting in all the latch hook knots. But I did stitch slowly by machine to get all the layers just right. It is my first time sewing a latch hook that I can remember.

The kitty pillow turned out really cute. Hope you get a picture of her opening it. You've done really well at finding time to stitch this week. Have a very Merry Christmas!
The kitty pillow is so cute! Many years ago when my daughter was about 10 she loved making these, great memories.
Merry Christmas!
That's a sweet pillow. Your daughter will love it.
