I'd done it
once (
twice even!) and there's a decent chance I'll do it again. But this week I gifted the third pillow I've made using the
Christmas Snowflake block by Rachel/
Wooden Spoon. As far as I'm concerned, an eight-pointed star is good any time of the year, and it was definitely fun to rummage through scraps again to create this latest version.
I made a near-duplicate of a
previous one, simply because my friend said she liked it so much. Just like before, I quilted a wavy stitch down each row using
Aurifil #2021 (Natural White), did a
flap-closure for the back, and stuffed it with a poofy
20" pillow form. Fun stuff!
Linking up with Finish It Up Friday!
You can't go wrong creating something similar to what has been known to be liked and appreciated! :)
ReplyDeleteLovely 'poofy' pillow. You're right that eight pointed star is a classic.
ReplyDeletelove it.
ReplyDeleteI really need to make a couple of pillows. One is for my 10 mo old grandson's wagon so he can ride in style, you know.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful :-) ... and stars are out every night, so of course it's a all year's theme
ReplyDeleteStars don't have a season...IMO! What a fun scrappy project!
ReplyDeleteWell worth the repeat!! The little touches of aqua captured me heart.
ReplyDeleteGreta looking pillow, I love the scrappy fabrics in it!
