My first pillow is complete!

Check out this tutorial from one of my favorite blogs. I made a similar pillow over the last few days.


Because this project required a lot of scrap fabrics, I had help from my mother-in-law. She's been quilting for years, so she had quite a stash. I picked about 8 or 10 fabrics in similar tones for my pillow, but the original tutorial used a rainbow of colors. I think you could make this just about any way you want. Oh, and the flower petals have double-sided fusible interfacing on the back, so they were ironed onto the pillow fabric. Neat, huh?


There was a lot of tracing, cutting, and ironing for this project. In a way, it was very soothing. Hope you'll make one!

Happy crafting!
