tick tock, a pillow clock!!

Today I received the most amazing pillow, from sweet miss Nova, for The Pillow Talk Swap!! It is a spectacular work of art, and am soooo excited it is mine!! She did such a fantastic job with every detail. I had mentioned in my preferences that I love interactive piecing and that is exactly what she did!! THANKS so much for creating such a wonderful pillow that I would adore!!

Absolutely perfect in every way!! I love the gnome, and owl, and look at the wonderful detail with the stitching and buttons for the inside of the clock!!

Tick Tock, Tick Tock!! Even the back side has detail!!

All my wonderful, amazing, adorable, spectacular, and FABULOUS pillows I've received in swaps!!

My baby girl just turned 10. Double digits!! She is growing up too fast!! Slow down sweet one!!

For my daughters b-day we took her to a water park while visiting my sister. This is what my little guy was busy doing for part of the time! Funny huh? Playing playmobil at the water park!


Getting ready to list the Far Far Away II!! :)

    what an awesome pillow!! I agree that it is amazing...all that lovely piecing!!

    You put a smile on my face with the playmobil shot! My youngest son played with playmobil toys for years (they are safely packed in the garage now) as did my brothers when we were young. Seeing your picture brought back some great and fond memories.
