I woke up on the wrong foot today, with my mood matching the weather: cold, dark, snowy, cloudy, grey, and generally miserable. (Anyone else completely sick of winter?) After work, I rushed home to crawl back into bed; the cold I've been fighting the past few weeks reared its head, too. In short, today sucked, and I'm hoping tomorrow will be a better day.
That said, I did manage to get out of bed long enough to make something for the blog. I changed my mind about four times about what to make, finally deciding to finish this pillow.
I'd knit these two leaf panels as part of this blanket about two years ago, but quickly got bored with the project and abandoned it. The idea to sew these together into a pillow has been with me for a while as well, but I never had enough of a reason to finish the project. Until now. (I'm a process creative rather than a project creative. Meaning, I enjoy the process more than the result.)
All that was left to do for this pillow was the finishing: weave in ends, block, sew, stuff. Voila!
