This is Jack – my seven-year old nephew.
He is a sweet cutie-pie of a boy who belongs to my younger brother. Jack loves fast cars, playing lacrosse, his family (Mom, Dad, sister Jenny and brother Jeff) and the colors, orange and red.
When Jack visits my home, he immediately runs upstairs and goes into my grandson, Jacob’s, bedroom to play. On one visit to my house, he became very interested in a pillow on Jacob’s bed.
Jack said to me, “Kim, can you make me a pillow like Jacob’s?” (He doesn’t insert “Auntie” before my name!)
It took me a little awhile, but I finished Jack’s “crazy” pillow just after his 7th birthday.
After he got his new pillow – he wanted to take it camping, but my brother wouldn’t let him. But with this pillow, there is no worry about dirt and grime! The pillow cover comes off and can be washed and dried many, many times.
Even though Jack just turned 7 years old in early July – he likes to tell people that he’s 7 1/2! Such a cute, funny litte guy.
I will be offering my crazy pillow pattern for free in the next few days. The pattern can be easily adapted for any child (or adult or pet for that matter!) with any interests. It is a quick, simple and fun project – so please stay tuned and watch for my next posting.
…Love Kim
