The song “You Are My Sunshine” holds a special place in the heart of Brandi from Don’t Disturb This Groove. When her daughter was a baby, Brandi’s mother would rock her and sing the sweet lullaby. Brandi was inspired to preserve that special memory by stamping the lyrics onto a pillow for her daughter. I absolutely adore how the pillow came out and the meaning behind it!
During her monthly sewing group, Terra from Mama Says Sew made these gorgeous ruffled pillowcases with contrast stitching. From a king-sized sheet, the ladies were able to make several sets, and the price came out to only $3 per pillowcase.

Hayden from Haven created an adorable set of super hero pillows for her boys’ bedroom.

Hand stitching around the edges gives them a more finished look and adds durability so they survive life with [...Read More]
When Kirstin from kojo designs saw a “huggie” pillow by Land of Nod, she knew it would be perfect for her daughter’s girly nursery. Kirstin changed up a couple of things and embroidered her daughter’s name on the back. I love how cute and snuggly this pillow is. The design makes it perfect for a [...Read More]
You know I love me some DIY pillow projects! Aimee from Twigg Studios created a cool pillow with a windowpane effect by weaving together strips of fabric. The intertwined strips give this neutral pillow tons of pizzazz. Aimee’s pillow and her Horchow inspiration are practically twinsies! Aimee was inspired by the Windowpane Pillow from Horchow.
