pillows to match a quilt, part 2

Remember these pillows? I had just finished my Kaleidoscope quilt and decided to make some new pillows for the couch. At the same time, I also started a second set, based on my Patchwork Squares quilt, which I had also finished around that time. I got as far as cutting the fabric strips, and then it was shoved to the side.

I saw these strips sitting on the back of my chair (one that currently holds all sorts of unfinished projects!) every morning. And every morning I thought to myself that it would be so quick to just finish those up. Yet days went by and I never got around to it.

Yesterday was the day. I sewed them together, quilted the front and backs with some straight and curved random lines and gave them a couple invisible zippers. And of course now I’m wondering why it took me so long…

I think they’re a great addition to our living room!
