I didn't even get started on my sewing projects yesterday. The sun was shining and it was almost warm, just couldn't stay in the house - went and did errands instead. Now today I am going to stay home and hopefully get motivated to work on my sewing projects! That's the plan anyway :)
Have a terrific day!

Project Sunday......this is a Reading Pillow I made for our gift exchange at Needle Keepers. The bottom front piece is a pocket to hold your book, bookmarks, reading glasses, etc.
Didn't get any sewing done yesterday but that's my plan for today. I'll watch the Bronco game and keep my fingers crossed for them. It's been a long while since we've made it to a playoff game:)
