Kid's Craft Blog Hop

 Hello Everyone!
Welcome to the Kid's Craft Blog Hop hosted by Jen at Purple Scrapbooker. We are glad you could join us today. You should have found your way from Star at Star's Paper Passion.

This is Georgiana from Carson's Cricut Creations and I would like to introduce someone very special. My daughter, Kelsey from One Creative Teen, is participating in the Kid's Craft Blog Hop. She has made a special project for today.

 Hi. This is Kelsey and I am going to tell you about these pillows I made for my bed.

I found this silky material at Joanns on sale (or my mom would not have bought it!) and I just had to have it. It is blue like two of my walls.
 I sewed the fabric together with my sewing machine that I got for Christmas about two years ago.

Then I stuffed them with Polyester Fiberfill (fluffy filling) that my Dad bought me.  
I tried to make a round one, but I need to practice a little more. :)
Lastly, I tied blue tulle around each pillow.
I sure do like how they look on my bed. I think they match my comforter perfectly!

I even have a small prize if you leave a comment. I know it is not much, but I don't have a good paying job since I am a kid. I will even make a card for you! : ) Take a look at my other  projects if you have a chance. I sure do like to make Disney cards.
I hope you enjoyed my project. Please head over to Celeste at C.C.'s Cards and Crafts to see what her children made. 

Thank you for visiting,
Kelsey

Here is the line-up if you need it.

    Your pillows came out perfectly. I know you will enjoy looking at them everyday and you should be proud of yourself. I bet your friends will want one now!

    Your pillows look wonderful! I can NOT sew at all! If I tried to make a round pillow it would end up looking like a triagle or something, yours looked perfect!! Great job honey! I am so happy you joined the blog hop.... the only problem now is, your going to have to keep making those pillows, cause everyone is going to want one!

    Hello! I am doing this blog hop with my 4 year old Kaleigh. Her Nana made her a blog and Kaleigh made a card and it's been posted. While Kaleigh & her brother were at Nana's she thought if she made a card she could just join in.

    Here is what Kaleigh has to say now(mom typing) I like your pillows they are very pretty. Thank you for showing it to me.

    Kaleigh

    Please stop by her blog and follower her if you would. It'll make her day!

    My name is Dakoda, I'm 3. I like the pillows, they look good for night-night time. **Translation - the pillows look comfortable to sleep on.**

    My name is Taylor, I'm 5. The pillows are really pretty. Blue is my favorite color. I want to make some with my mom.

    Kelsey, you did a great job!!!!! I absolutely love the material you used! I'm so honored to be able to follow you in the hop; you did such a wonderful job!!!!!

    Wow, those pillows are fantastic! You have true talent! My mom has a sewing machine that she got a long time ago and never used and she wants to give it to me and maybe next year in high school I can take a sewing class. I really wish I had asked about it earlier. I really would've loved to learn how to sew earlier in life. I would lvoe to just sew up some pillows for myself. What I really want to do is be a fashion designer. That is why it's critical that I know how to sew. Hopefully, when I DO learn, I am good at it. :)

    These pillows are fabulous Kelsey! My girls, 13 and 16, would love these! They like to sew also. I looked around your blog and I am loving it so I am a new follower :) My 13 year old is not really into hopping but my 16 yo is getting into it so she might see your blog. If she doesn't hop, I will show it to her so maybe she will want to follow too. Great job!
