Sewing Mini Pillows

After watching me sew away making pillow cases they thought they needed in on the action and since I wasn't really ready to have them practice on my nice fabric they got the scrapes out and made their own pillows.   They cut long rectangles, and each one added a special fabric (mostly characters) on top of the pillow. I sat and guided each one through the sewing, flipping, and stuffing (which we just used other old fabric for :-)  They loved it and want to sew more!
#2 Boy was the first to do it one evening when the others were playing.  He loves his projects!

When all the others saw what he was doing they wanted in on the action also but I made them wait until morning.  But, before even getting dressed we were sewing away!

#1 Girl wanted hers to be different and cut out some to sew her special fabric behind...but they barely overlapped so she was a little frustrated

They all were happy by the end
