Organised October: Reading Pillows!

Hello Peeps,

For today's Organised October we have some kits for reading pillows.

Miss H went to some friends' birthday party (triplets - 2 girls and a boy - and their sister). The Mother taught them how to quilt last year and they are creative so Miss H and the Mother decided to make up some packs for them to make their own Reading Pillows.

So, the Mother wrote up a pattern for them. Below is some of the progression photos we included with the instructions.


Here is some of the Mother's stitching.


The front. I love that front fabric - though Snowy doesn't! Hee hee hee!


I don't know what this is a picture of... um... a pin in fabric...
 This is what happens when Miss H lets the Mother take the pictures... 


The finished pillow! Complete with Miss H's favourite book, of course! 

The Mother and Miss H made up the kits for the triplets and their sister. 


Each fabric was carefully chosen according to the colours they like. 

Love From

  3. What a brilliant idea ... am thinking i might have to "pinch/borrow" that idea for a friends birthday next year ... she enjoys the same kind of books as I do so I could pop one in the pocket.
