once a rocker, always a rocker

i know i know....ive been a little "absent" from blogging and sewing lately. but im BACK and rockin', literally. teehee (i still LOVE my hard rock music-its the 80s baby in me)

I have had this fabric for my oldest son for awhile. he is my music guy, my electric guitar player, my metal head. I reallllyyyy wasnt sure if he would appreciate a quilt....or even use a quilt.(warm blooded like his momma). then i found this light weight quilt above on clearance at target and decided to make pillowcases out of the guitar fabric. his room is mainly black furniture. (teenagers-what can i say)


ADDED LATER---i whipped up this big ol comfy pillow for my teenager too. hookem horns! just a big ol fleece pillow. no true shape LOL

i also have a few other projects im going to start working on today, finally! spring has been busy......hope you are all finding a little time to sew.

Sons we gotta love 'em! Mine is still into guitars, his punk/rock band & skateboards. (he's 34!)

Oh how fun! I am feeling a little blah today so maybe some sewing is just what I need.
