Patchwork pillows are a lot of fun to make and I am definitely hooked. I like making things that don't require months to finish and these are perfect.
They can sure brighten up a room!
These were made with leftover scraps from other quilt projects, so they actually make a set with a quilt.
This picture was taken yesterday. It was such a DREARY day. It was pouring rain. In JANUARY. In MONTREAL. In QUEBEC. In CANADA!
I didn't watch the news so I don't know if we broke any records for mild weather, but it's been unseasonably warm. I just read 'FLIGHT BEHAVIORS' by Barbara Kinsolver and it talks about this very thing. It's a good novel and I recommend it.
I didn't watch the news because I was busy watching Downton Abbey! Oh that poor Edith! The girl can't catch a break! I hope they have something good in store for her soon!
The good news is that the snow has melted off of the roof and that I won't have to pay someone big bucks to shovel it off. I had many visitors at my bird feeders, despite the rain, including this guy. I figure they all need a bit of sustenance, so I let him be.
The trouble with making stuff with scraps though, is that I'm not using up all that beautiful new fabric I received during the holidays! I am in LOVE with Sara Watt's fabric line
"Timber and Leaf" from Blend fabrics. I am determined to sew a little quilt with it before I do anything else.
Thanks for stopping by!
