This may change, but currently, my favorite invention is the sewing machine. I have an older one from the 1950s, but I’m still amazed by what it does. We recently moved and got some new furniture and I wanted some throw pillows, but didn’t want to spend upwards of $40 for just one decorative pillow. I had inherited this sewing machine and made a few trips to some fabric stores to see what ideas percolated. I initially intended to make plain square pillows, but as I started, the possibilities that the sewing machine allowed me opened the doors to creating some really unique throw pillows that are beautiful and a lot of fun to make.
