Quick Project

I threw together this cute ‘lil thing the other day:

I had fun digging through my fabric scraps. I forgot how much I love this cute pattern! It makes me want to make a baby quilt if I ever have a girl.

It’s a headache pillow, or as I like to think of it, a whatever-ache pillow of hot fabulosity. I first saw the project here, then grabbed the instructions here. I love how the first blog led me to a brand-new-to-me blog. Fun!

Instead of adding tea leaves to the rice, I used lavender flowers since I just so happened to have them on hand. All in all, this probably took me less than 30 minutes. It took longer to set up the sewing machine! I pop the pillow into the microwave for a minute or so and kick back while the heat relaxes my pains away.

It was such a fun, quick project, and I’ve found it’s a great substitution to the broken heating pad I never got around to replacing.
