Hit Me Up....Side the Head...!!

Year after year all CityBoy has wanted for Christmas is cartoon sheets for the bed....
Year after year i've searched high and low trying to find king size cartoon sheets...
They don't make them...!!!!
Several years ago he said he would settle for cartoon pillow cases...
Try to find cartoon pillow cases sold seperately..
(not in those kiddie sheet sets)
Can't be done..!!

Then it hit me up-side the head...
I've got a sewing machine and a serger...
I've got a whole sewing room...
I've made dozens of pillow cases for other people...
Duhhhhhhh....
Make the boy some cartoon pillow cases...
Quick trip to the Wal*Marts .... one hour of my time....
And
CityBoy's a happy camper...!

Live in the Moment

  1. How cute they are! You did a great job. Hope City Boy enjoys them...We are waiting here for the blizzard of 2012 to hit us. It has started snowing. We could get 8-12 inches but the wind will make it more in places.
    Hope your Wednesday is a wonderful one!

  3. Also from what I have seen of your sewing, this was one of your more simple tasks to finish. Good thinking!!!!

  4. I can't begin to tell you how many action figure/comic book hero/Star Wars themed pillow cases I have made this year alone. Little kids, big kids, pre-teens, teens, college kids, MEN! They all LOVE them. I buy the fabrics at Jo Ann's on sale. The pillows on sale at Walmart and Kmart. I make mine using the 'burrito method' and with French seams.

  5. What fun! I'm taking advantage of a quiet day to visit some favorite blogs I've been absent from lately and I'm so glad I stopped by today!

  6. To each his own, but I would prefer flowers or butterflies. You did a great job, but then you always do with your projects.
