Grateful pillow

I am always blown away at the cost of pillows. I mean two pieces of fabric, a little bit of stuffing and the cost is $20 and up.

I'm not really much of a DIY crafter, but when an opportunity comes up, I rise to the occasion.

My daughter bought a placemat at Target in their $3 bin. When she brought it home, she thought about making a wall hanging. BUT! Mom took it in another direction. The pillow.

I purchased a pillow form for about $5, found fabric in my stash for the backing and created my own Grateful pillow for under $10.

As opposed to the Target pillow
 

 that listed for $20.

I can live with that!
