'Anchors Aweigh' Pillows©


'Anchors Aweigh' Pillows©
I have enjoyed making these cute
little pillows so much...
and here in the Pacific Northwest it
has been so pretty outside lately!
 
 It's 80 degrees outside today...
so it really feels like summer
has come early and that just
doesn't happen here...we have
 had snow in April & May...so this is
a wonderful treat!
And nothing says summer like
 a sailboat
and a little sand crab!
This little Anchor pillow is one
of my favorites!
I have been crocheting now everyday
so now I am going on a ride on
my husbands motorcycle!
Hooray!!

"Summer is a Comin"Pillows!©
 I just finished two more
pillows!

 These two just makes me want
to go play in the sand!
I remember how much fun it was to
play in the warm summer sand!
These are happy little pillows
and not hard to make!
