DIY Project 2: Indian Garment

Our daughter JaLynn received a beautiful indian garment from the wedding we attended this past Nov. With colors of red and gold it complimented the bridesmaid dresses perfectly. It wasn't soon after the wedding she could no longer fit in the top.

Too pretty to go to waste..

Yesterday, I took a couple hours to sew up the ends and fill the neck hole with the sleeves I cut into two halves. With a little stuffing, hand stitching, and a sewing machine; I now have a beautiful decorative pillow.
