What a fun way to make a gift for someone special!

 It's the gift to give when you want to give something unique and personal :-).

It is best of you can coordinate with the colors of their bedroom!

First, I sketch some ideas...

I look through my fabric stash to see what I've got that will coordinate with the color scheme.

Then I draw and cut out the letter.

I used the bottom of a toddler dress for the ruffle, so that determined the size of the pillow. 

It just needs...more.

So, I parused through Pinterest for some inspiration and came up with this idea of adding flowers and a bird. See my inspiration here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/83551460/freehand-embroidered-bohemian-letters?ref=pr_shop

And the finished product:

A one of a kind gift for someone VERY special!!!

My daughter is having an ice skating birthday party, so I am making these instead of giving goodie bags. 

I hope the girls like them :-)
