Beanbags
Yes, I do sometimes actually finish projects. Look! Finished beanbags! These bad boys were sitting in a basket next to the couch for a couple of months. They were stitched up on three sides, turned, stuffed, and pinned on the final side. All I had to was slip stitch the final side shut. Yes, it took me way too long. I assure you I am properly hanging my head in shame.
But check them out! Six colors, two of each color, and super-light. You can throw these things around in the house and not damage anything. You can get hit in the face with one (although I don’t exactly recommend it) and it doesn’t hurt. I created these for friends of ours down in Imabari who teach English to kids in their house. The last thing they need are beanbags that can really cause some damage.
And although I haven’t tested them yet, I’m pretty sure these things will be machine washable. Now that is what I like to call a crafting coup d’état.
