The pillow to go with Lizard's final quilt took only two or three hours to finish, but it took me a lot longer than that to just sit down and do the project. The donors have been so patient, for which I am so appreciative.
I finally got the squares lined up in a layout I thought Lizard might have liked. and then sewed them. I was then utterly amazed at the size difference before and after stitching. I had thought this was going to be a giant pillow! I used scrap leftovers to stuff it, so it has a heavy feel. Kind of cool, in my opinion. But it does make it take longer to dry after washing. Ugh!
What a nice bonus for the donor and a great way to use up the leftovers. I love that it’s two sided.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Cherie. I'm very pleased with how it turned out. Eventually I will reach the point I can do stuff like this without tears...
