Floor Pillows



The grandgirls wanted pillows for their rooms and I decided to make the pillows large enough for them to actually sit on them on the floor.... or lie on them on the floor... or prop up in bed and read.   

I used BlockBase (link)  to resize the blocks I chose to 27" finished.... love doing that!  So easy, no math...


These are actually pillow covers so DD can remove the covers and wash them when needed.


The dolphin pillow top was quilted with wavy line in an attempt to have the dolphins swimming thru water and the crab pillow top was stitched-in-the-ditch.  

Now... on to another project!

  3. I'm sure your granddaughters are going to love them and use them a lot. Pillows were always a favorite in our house. I love the fabrics you used... especially the dolphins.
