Quillow madness!!!

I had some cute fabric in my cupboard, which I'd bought for the special little ones in my life. It had been sitting in my cupboard for 12 months, but with the colder weather I finally found my mojo.

Out came one of  Monica Poole's pattern and I started cutting and sewing. I was so happy with the first so before I lost motivation I went on to make the second


My son made a surprise visit on his way to a camping trip by the beach and reckoned the quillows were the 'coolest thing in the world'. This was pretty high praise from 19 year old who usually  responds with 'cute'! So I decided to head back into the sewing room and start again. This time I used scraps from a previous quilt, made a heap of half square triangles and designed the front of the cushion. 

I sewed it together and attached the quilt and...dada!!!



I was really happy with the result. My son say he's 'frothin so hard' and keeps/uses it in his campervan.
