Once I start I can't seem to stop

I started making some pillows again, and well.....I can't seem to stop.  It's kind of fun for me to have a project to do that doesn't involve laundry, cooking, cleaning, running kids around, etc.  These are the latest in my "collection."

Love your pillow creations! What are you stuffing them with? You are inspiring me, I need to get going on some new pillows myself.

M-You can easily make your own pillow forms by purchasing some cheap white fabric (ie. muslin, etc) and a bag of fiberfill. Or, if you like to cheat like me, you can wait until pillow forms at the fabric store go on sale for 50% off. :) Or....another even cheaper option is to use some existing pillows in the house (if you feel like they are no longer "display-worthy" and use them as your pillow forms. Make your pillow cases, stuff in the old pillow, add a little "fluff", and voile....your good to go. If you can't find fabric that you are crazy about at the fabric store, try checking out a discount store like Ross and picking up either a flat sheet in a print that you like, or cheap curtains work, too.
