I used the Skinny Churn Dash tutorial by HoosierToni, which has never led me astray. At one of our guild "sewcials"/sewing days, I free motion quilted the top of the pillow. There is one layer of batting and a layer of muslin behind it. Then, I made the rest of the pillow envelope-style, and voila!
I had hoped to get this pillow to Betsy earlier (like, before Christmas) but it stayed on my to-do list until the end of February. Thanks for your patience. :D Also, look how beautiful her pillows look together in her house! Love!! Betsy made the pillow on the right - it's Elizabeth Hartman's Mod Mosaic pattern.

Thanks for all the well-wishes - I'm feeling a bit better today (maybe 70%). Hopefully I'll be done with this horrid cold this weekend! Then, I can get back to sewing!

Linking up to TGIFF and Needle and Thread Thursday.

Hurray for fun giveaways! Looks like something fun to make, and really nice with her blue pillow! I had a pick-your-own style giveaway back in January, I think, and the item is still on my to-do list! Hoping to get it done in the first half of April...
ReplyDeleteI am glad you are on the mend; I hope you are back to 100% really soon. The pillow looks great, especially next to its friend. I really love getting to see items in their forever homes. ;)
ReplyDeleteThis is the look of a quilter I aspire to be. Just love your style!
ReplyDeleteHi , do you buy or make your own pillow inserts?
