Pillowpalooza


It's a pillowpalooza here at Happy Little Cottage! I am trying to stock my shop with cute things in time for the holidays, PLUS I really wanted to try some different quilt blocks.


Subway Tile.  Easy and a switch from my beloved squares!


Chevron. Modern and fun, but LOTS of cutting and piecing!!


Log Cabin. I think this was the most fun to make!

I really like the way the modern fabric updates the traditional quilt designs.  I am anxious to play around with the Log Cabin block. I have seen so many variations and think all of them would make great pillows.

If you are new to patchwork and quilting, a pillow is the perfect place to start!!  If you don't sew and would love a cute pillow, all of these are in my shop!!

    Pillows are a great way to start patchwork, I think that's how we all have started until you catch the bug!!!

  19. Just beautiful. You are so talented in colour and pattern choices. I think the chevron looks amazing. Such a simple placement of pieces makes a huge impact to create the chevron pattern. I am inspired to give it a go. Love your blog posts. Warm wishes Linny.
