Outdoor Tuffet

     (Gum Drop Pillow)
I have to admit, I'm not much for patterns.  I like to figure things out on my own and pretty much wing it, but when I saw the Amy Butler Gum Drop Pillow pattern I had to buy it.
How can you not love those Gum Drops???

 I bought the pattern and outdoor fabric and made two of the Gum Drop Pillows (Ms M calls them Tuffets) for my back patio.  I couldn't let the extra fabric go to waste so I made some coordinating pillows too.


If you plan on making these you will need to purchase more fiber-fill than suggested.  I used double the amount and they are so firm that I can sit on them.
