Appliqued quilt block,(about 14"), machine quilted. |
Thanks to a lovely friend, I have a new pillow for the sun porch. My friend Emily gave me several pre-cut quilt block kits that she decided not to use. This one was an applique' block that I decided would look great as a pillow on the porch. I machine quilted the block onto a piece of muslin (I'm learning to machine quilt on my standard machine) and then used a random fat-quarter of mottled blue for the back to create the pillow.
It looks lovely against the new lap-blanket my mom made for me!
This makes me happy and I think it is pretty as well as functional. Now to wait for Steve to test it out and let me know if he thinks it will help with afternoon naps. :-)
