Scott Sews, Too

Not too long ago, a friend of Scott's had an emergency appendectomy (that's doctorspeak for "got his appendix taken out" - I just learned that big word from Scott!).  The day he got to come home from the hospital, Scott decided that he wanted to make him a nice little "welcome home" gift.

His idea?  A pillow.  HA!

He asked if I would sew it for him.  I answered, "You could sew it."  (Seriously, folks.  Pillows are so simple!)

And so we worked on a little sewing project together!

Here's the final product, right before delivery:


Scott sewed this fabulous decorative border.  Makes it look real homey, doesn't it?


I sewed the four edges together.  Scott stuffed it.

And then we added the final, special touch.

No, your eyes did not fool you.  That is, indeed, a fabric interpretation of an appendix hanging off the side there.  An appendix that has burst, no less!



And yes, the gesture was appreciated.  And laughed at accordingly.
