and I think I was more excited about it than the invitee.
Because I had the perfect excuse to make one of these.
I wish you could have seen Margaret's face when I asked her to pick out a fabric that she thought her friend would like. "What are you going to make her?" with a (ever-so-slight) roll of the eyes (she is nearly twelve, mind you), "Can we still get her the Old Navy gift card I want to get her?" Oh yes, and even better!
It was reported back that the birthday girl thought it was pretty cool too! Leslie, you're a genius!
i love the pillow with the shiny brown ribbon and the story about your daughter. the kiddos should really have more faith in us - we may be old, but we know 'making'!

My plan is to make a few of those pillows to use for holiday gifts--yours turned out great!

Oh! Oh! What an absolutely adorable idea! I can't wait to make one - or several for the Holidays this year! And birthdays.... and anniversaries... and... and...
