Earlier this year I offered to make the Christmas presents for the Young Women in our ward, as I am now the 1st Councilor. I had remembered seeing a really cute pattern in a book at someone's house. I picked up the book and thought, "this shouldn't be too hard". Ha Ha Ha. Who was I kidding? When I offered we had 12 girls. I am doing 20 pillows because we have had so many move in. I am getting really good at quilting and having my seams come out even.
Jeremy was very skeptical about them until he saw one of the finished (washed and stuffed) pillows. Now he says "WOW, those are really cute!". I is taking me about 3-4 hours per pillow, I do them in sets, so don't know exactly how long.
I think that I will not be so apt to volunteer next year. We will be getting quite a few more in to the YW and not many leaving.
