The fabric (felt) was relatively inexpensive but the time, oh the time it took to cut out one milllleeeooon of those little circles to make the rosettes. I even doubled over the fabric and it still took forever. It was totally worth it but just a warning to those ready to jump on the rosette making bandwagon.

Lulu was just as thrilled about the circle scraps as I was.

After I cut out all of the circles, I hand sewed them to the pillow. I deserve a medal. Seriously. At least a participation medal. I don’t have photos of the in progress because my hands were bleeding from all of the circle cutting so you’ll just have to use your imagination.

I used my new fandangled sewing machine (thanks Grandma!) and sewed a perfect little pillow including a zipper. I love it. It now has a happy little home in our guest room. It has replaced a pillow that someone ate.
