Hi Erica,
Can you please tell us what fabric line was used to make this pillow cover. Thank you
I used Holly’s Tree Farm by Sweetwater for Moda.
I just discovered your tutorials today on you tube. I love this one. I was wanting a tutorial for this type of pillow as I’d like to make one to match my first quilt (which I just finished the top today!!)
God Bless You.
What is the pattern for the pillow top? (the house). Do you have a link to that?
Hi, the house block is from this book: https://amzn.to/3bu798d And of course I altered it a bit and then added the checkered borders on my own.
