I am in the mood to sew stuff for Christmas gifts. I have been looking at all sorts of things, small items that are easy to make.
Here is a tutorial for a pillow with a puffy flower in the middle:

And here are some other pillows that I could figure out how to make with all the wool felt I have:

I think you should make yourself the flower garden pillow when you get the chance. It is totally cute, and I think it would go great in your living room. But don't let this stop you from making Christmas gifts (wink...wink...). I had tons of fun last night by the way--I'm glad we stopped by, even if it was a bit late.
