Hi all! I am Jewels from Joy N Jesus, I'm so blessed to be guest posting on Delightful Creations. Eva is a crafty girl and a friend who I treasure! I am so blessed by her. Thank you all so much for having me! Today I wanted to share with you a pillow I recently made for my youngest girl.

When I had my second girl, I fell in love with the hot pink and zebra print look. I ordered a car seat cover on ebay, you can see a picture of it HERE, my mom made me blankets for each girl to match and now... My baby J's first pillow follows suit. It was super easy. Here is how I did it...

Buy two pre-cut fabric strips from walmart for $1.00 each! Yep $2.00 to start the project. For real?!

Then for another $2 dollars I purchased some Polyfil to stuff the pillow.

Next I ironed the pieces and flipped them inside out and started stitching with my sewing machine. You could definitely do it by hand or with the no sew glue too. However, since it was for my baby, I wanted to be sure no Polyfil snuck out. One end was left half open in order to turn it right side in and fill with the Polyfil. Then a little stitch by hand to close it.

Lastly, I cut ribbon into four pieces and formed them in the shape of a "J."

I hope you will try it! If you do come back and tell me! I would love to feature it or see it on your blog!

Thanks so much for stoppin in today!

Be filled with Joy,

Jewels
