I don't think there can ever be enough pillows. I have an image in my mind of a corner filled with all cute handmade pillows and stuffed animals and one of my kids sitting in it reading. My boys drag multiple pillows with them around the house.

We've been in this house for a barely a year already and the kitchen is only now starting to feel, uh, 'kitcheny' to me. Our 'new' kitchen needed some homemade touches to make it feel more homey I think. Sewn things especially. :)

Since school's been in full gear for the kids all I've been thinking about is the next holiday to come up. I want to do all of these fun things, but have been sick pretty much all month and have been slacking a bit. Or maybe a lot!

I took my time making this super useful thread catcher, using hand embroidery to add that extra touch of cuteness.
