She told me about a little boy who made a big impact on her. It was hard for them to communicate because of the language barrier, but when Kortney asked him to sing her a song, she was surprised to hear him sing the word "butterfly" in English. So OF COURSE I had to include some winged beauties on the pillow.
So, here it is Kortney! I hope you like it :). I'll put it in the mail sometime soon.

***Unrelated Sidenote*** The word for this comment's verification was 'theduck'. Just seemed strange!
It is beautiful and no doubt will mean much to your friend. The butterflies are beautiful and I love the outline around Africa. You did good!
It's gorgeous.
And I'm gonna bet just a *little* more special to you since it was Africa...
I've been making pillows lately too. They're so fun!
here's the most recent one I've been working on if you want to see.

Oh my goodness...I LOVE that pillow! Even more so, I love it because of the story behind it. And...ummm...how many talents do you have, woman?

Oooooo! SO cute! You've inspired me to get a little crafty now this summer... :) Thanks for sharing!
By the way, what did you use as the outline for Africa and where did you find the pillows?

I love this pillow! It's so pretty! You did a wonderful job!
HOW, may I ask, did you do this??? This would be the perfect present for a friend of mine who also went to Mozambique a few years ago!
JJ, my 18 yr old daughter is spending the majority of the summer in Uganda, Africa volunteering at an orphanage...I know she would love one of your Africa pillows. Would you be able to make one for her? Thank you for considering!
