Holiday Lane Blog Hop


This blog hop has skipped right through Thanksgiving and now we are headed on to Christmas. The pattern for this pillow can be found for free here if you would like to make one. 


This is the original Holiday Lane Pillow


I took some liberties with mine, replacing the black background with a blue and silver snowy print and i also used it for the trim. I moved the trees around and added some cuties I cut out from a Christmas print. 


Santa's Sleigh being pulled by a cat riding a reindeer (like the do)


Trees


Puppies writing letters to Santa 

Pillow came together quickly although I may have over stuffed mine.
Here are the other participants in the hop today.....Hop on over to see theirs.....

Wednesday November 28
