Floor Pillow {Christmas Gift}

Hi!

Can you believe I am posting about Christmas already?  Yes, I am.  When you do homemade, you need to start early. If you don't you will be setting behind the sewing machine/craft table during the holidays rather than enjoying them with your family.  That's no fun!  So, here is my first Christmas present.

 

I have been wanting to make a floor pillow for months now.  I think they are so cute.  All I needed was a reason.  And I believe that my Niece is a great reason.  The top is pieced together, while the bottom is one whole piece.

Miss Riley loves it, too.  Maybe she will get one for Christmas as well.  :)

It's a really nice size.  My Niece will be two by Christmas.  So it should be perfect for her to lounge on.

I love the colors and patterns on the top piece.  It's so fun, and should match just about any decor that her room may change into as she grows.

 

I also cut out a flower from one of the fabrics and used that as the middle piece.  That is where all of the top pieces connect, and I wanted it to be hid.  I sewed around the flower with a cute stitch.  And then I pulled the top to the bottom with thread to make it pull down in the middle.  

I'm really happy with it.  I hope I can hold off on giving it to her till Christmas.  I'm the worst at that.  ;)

Have you started on Christmas presents yet?

I like to party at these awesome places.
