A Finish for Wednesday . . .

The first fabric I picked up when I went to my craft room was a chocolate minky that had been given to me by a friend (left over from one of her quilts). It was just enough to back these pillow, and I've now decided that minky makes the perfect pillow backing ~ stretchy (and forgiving), cuddly and soft, and no edges to finish off! So in about 30 minutes I had all three of these pillows on my couch!
And I'm very excited to have put these left over Moda Daydreams fabrics to use. The wallhanging I first made with this fabric was completed almost 2 years ago! I LOVE it when online challenges give me the motivation to get something done for myself! Now to decide which ones to enter into the Sew Mama Sew Pillow Contest . . .
