My neighbor lost her husband recently and so I made a pillow for her with his photo on it that she tells me she hugs on every night. sleep tight. . . She loves it.
And I love to stitch and slash as learned in the class.

What are you most proud of?

I like the natural colors of this pillow. I hoped to honor Bruce's love for the outdoors.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Have fun with this method.
