Trying to Handsew a Really Pretty Pillow
Gee- this morning I sewed a pillow. I tried to add embroidery although it didn't turn out too good. First, I took a big piece of fabric, folded it in half, and cut out a circle. (It made 2 circles because I had folded it in half.) Then, I left one circle on my bed and took the other one and started to embroider. It was my first time after all and I kinda taught myself so obviously it wasn't too good. But after I finished with the embroidery, I sewed the other circle to the circle with the embroidery on it and left a small hole that way I was able to stuff it. In the end, it turned out that parts of the embroidery string sort of came loose but not too much. I never knew how hard it is to handsew a really pretty pillow!
