Think about what truly makes you happy…when your soul feels content and all is right in your world.
Would you be happy if you had a bigger house, a better job, a flashy car?
Would you be happy if you were famous, or thinner, or wealthier?
Let’s Be Honest
We are happiest when we are surrounded by those we love and who love us back!
I made a pillow to remind me of who loves me the most, to remind me that there’s a plan for me, for my whole family, and to trust.
I started out with a pair of dishtowels I found at Williams Sonoma on clearance for $3.99 each. Score!
I chose an embroidery design from Urban Threads and added the “I love you”.
Now, mind you, it has been MONTHS since I used my embroidery machine, AKA Marie, so I was a little nervous. But she fired up without any issues…Yay!!!
The towels were super easy to make a pillow from…they measured 16”x16” perfectly so there was no cutting involved. I just added a zipper enclosure and it was done! Super easy project, highly recommend even for beginner sewers. (There are lots of tutorials of how to install a zipper out there on the web, but I feel sew mama sew has some of the best.)

Never forget who loves you the most and who wants you to live a happy, authentic life.
Peace,
Kathy
