I created a tutorial for a kite themed nursery floor pillow using Riley Blake's new Fly A Kite collection by October Afternoon. You'll find the step by step tutorial for making this large floor pillow, and even steps for making a smaller version, on the RBD blog today (tutorial to be posted at 9am MST right here). This project turned out to be my favorite pillow yet -- I really hope you like it!
They make a wonderful set!!

Today, besides having the honor of guest posting on the Riley Blake Blog, I also get to host a very special and crazy HUGE giveaway right here!!!
