    As i posted this morning, i walked past the mess in my kitchen and spent most of the day sewing! My 5 yr old grandson wanted a "sleep mat" to use while watching football with his Dad so i got out the material and had it finished by 1:00!
    The pic didin't come out that well but i included it anywhay. I use 2 fabrics 1 1/2yds each side and sewed in a pillow into the top. I quilted the squares every 5 inches so it will hold up in the washing machine. After relaxing at the machine today i am ready for the 4 little ones to invade the house tomorrow. I hope you all had a great day too!

    That is really cool. I would have never thought of sewing a pillow into it. My DD wants to know where you got the cars fabric from? She is making a quilt for her boyfriend with mator as the main character.

    I found that fabric at Joann's about a month ago.

    I got two different "Cars" fabric at Wal-Mart a few months ago. Don't know if they still have it or not.
