Rice Pillow Love

I whipped up one of Blair's rice pillows last night.  She wasn't kidding when she said it could be done in little time.  Mine was in the microwave about 15 minutes after I had started it.  It is the perfect thing for my sore back/shoulder.

I used scraps from some pillowcases I made a few weeks ago.  The eyelet ruffle was already on the sheeting.  Here is another time I am so happy to have a serger.  I just turned it on and with a few seams I was in business.  Like Molly, I made a case that can come off and be washed.  Good thing, too.  It's going to have to be washed to get all the cat hair off.  Miss Scout likes it just as much as I do.

Oh, and the x's....6 down, 3 to go.  The ones above aren't sewn together.  I am waiting until I have them all finished to see obsess over how it's all going to come together.  So far, just looking at them all together is making me a happy girl.
