For all the hunters in your life...oh wait, maybe that's just me.
For Father's Day, for both Jamie and Jim, I made deer pillows. I saw the original at www.makeitlovely.com, and it was so inspiring. She did hers with a flowery fabric, and as great as it looked, when I found the camo fabric, I knew what a great pillow it would turn out to be.
I actually bought the pillow forms, because I figured it would take a lot of poly fill to stuff those puppies. And they definitely made a good sturdy pillow.
One pillow I made, stuffed then sewed the side up. Didn't like that version very much, so for the next I made more of a pillow cover, so you can actually take it off. Which made stuffing the pillow into the case, so much easier the second time. Live and learn right?
Jamie loves his, and Jim will get his this weekend. Hopefully he likes it too.
