Pillow Mania

I made a few pillows at the end of 2013 beginning of 2014. For me they are like mini quilts for the couch. The last in the great series of pillows is one I made for my father-in-law. He and I have a squirrel-thing. We have exchanged some ridiculous squirrel related items in the past. The new Charlie Harper fabric prints by Birch, seemed like just the opportunity to make another fun squirrel project.

"More Squirrel Shenanigans"

18 x 18" (shown with a 20" pillow form)

Birch Fabrics, Charlie Harper prints from Fancy Tiger Crafts, Denver

Hex-n-more ruler, Fancy Tiger Crafts, Denver

Aurifil 100% cotton thread for the piecing and quilting

Fusible Pellon fleece for the "batting"

Red zipper from zipit

I used my hex-n-more ruler to cut the triangles, and for the fun Seminole patchwork I had pieces left over from the Always Bee Learning Flickr Group from a few years back. The solid fabrics are Kona, Chinese red, Curry and Charcoal along with my favorite stand-by Snow. I fussy cut the front and used a big piece of the Birch fabric in the back. The red zipper is just another fun punch of color.
