Goody Goody Gumdrop


Ok, so these pillows ARE fun. I think someone else already said that, and I thought, yeah, right, nothing that I have to shove batting into up to my elbows can really be FUN, but, seriously, these cushions are. And fast. I picked up the pattern yesterday at about three, spent about an hour sewing last night and about 45 minutes stuffing and sewing today. And easy, because, hey, I did it, and I have almost no pillow/stuffy experience. So, seriously, go out and get Amy Butler's Gumdrop pillow pattern, and I will be napping in the chair with my feet up.
(Also, the fabric, delicious, yes? From the Belle collection, Amy B again, of course.)

It's so cute!

I keep thinking these would be fun in the playroom, but I imagine the stuffing is expensive.
