Last year I had the pleasure of testing a pattern called 'Blue Sapphire' by Connie @ Freemotion By the River. I knew I wanted to make something for my DS and he suggested pillows for his couch.
I didn't have enough of the batiks to make the whole quilt, so pillows it was!
The pattern was very easy to follow and makes such a fun design!
I usually make lapped backs, but this time I put in zipper backs with a flap covering the zipper.
I followed a tutorial on Sew Mama Sew. Easy peasy! (I did change the measurements a bit.)
He came by and picked them up yesterday and loved them. :-) Be sure to check out Connie's patterns on her site~ lots of fun quilts and I just love the batiks!
Until next time~
Happy stitchin'!

Beautiful pillows for your son and I'm so glad you had fun with Blue Sapphire!
Those are beautiful and a beautiful gift.
I need to make pillows, but mine will be more prim and simple, something for the beach room.

Really stylish pillows! It is so nice to be able to remove a pillow cover for washing or "resting" off season--despite the hassle of inserting a zipper. Good work!
