SUCCESS!!!!!!!!
I decided the pillows on the couches needed to be updated. The ones we had came with the sofas Kevin purchased LONG before we ever met. Needless to say, it was time for a new look. Thanks to Pintrest, I found a super easy tutorial here, and went to town yesterday. I made four pillow covers and they came out AMAZING. It was easy, I figured it out, and there were no meltdowns. I'm ridiculously pleased with myself and the results. I am now on a streak and want to make more pillow covers and get more pillows (as accent pieces, obviously); we'll have them for everyday and then seasonally appropriate looks. Our whole house is going to be decorated with pillows. I'll calm down soon enough, but I am super proud of me. This gives me hope for future sewing endeavors. Today, a pillow. Tomorrow, a curtain!
My pride and joy; all four pillows.

Well DONE...Martha would be proud to have you as one of her sweat shop employees.
Nice! I keep thinking I need to make some pillows for my couches, but then I already have like four projects that need to be finished first, so...we'll see if we ever get there.
That's awesome! Isn't it the best feeling ever to find an awesome crafty idea and be able to see it come to life by your hands? :D I've also recently embarked on a journey into the world of sewing and it's exciting to see all the many possibilities!
Well Done!! Those are AWESOME pillows!!!! They look very nice with the couch. Sewing can be such a pain. It generally drives me crazy but I can do it, sort of. It is wonderful to accomplish something we set out to do. KUDOS!!
