Oh, laugh if you must but I promise my high school home-ec teacher and mom are beaming right now! I was sneaky about pulling the sewing machine out of hibernation and then returning all evidence before Joe got home from work. I even wrapped it and put it under the tree knowing that Joe would be floored!
What I didn't count on was my darling 3 year old who also shared the excitement of the momentous occasion. Joe wasn't in the door more than 2 steps when Kris went running up to him saying, "Daddy, Mommy made you a new pillowcase!" Joe was so excited and I was completely defeated all at once. Oh well! At least I actually did it and he loved it!
I made the body pillowcase with the eagles soaring. The other pillows in the picture are my new red satin pillow from my birthday, a snowman pillowcase mom made when the kids were little, and the littlest one is my new fave. It says: I've had it with reality...I want my fairy godmother!
You never seem to stop impressing me! The pillowcase looks AWESOME! Sorry about Kristen spilling the beans.
ReplyDeleteI was VERY careful with what Diana saw me buy this year. She's a regular Benedict Arnold!
