Big-Stitch Hand Quilting Makes This Pillow Special

Accent Yours With Stitches in a Color to Complement the Fabrics You Choose!
This pretty little pillow is the perfect project for trying your hand at big-stitch hand quilting with Perle Cotton (if you haven’t already!). Simple patchwork is made into something special with big colorful quilting stitches.
Many pillow covers are turned, rather than having a binding like this one does. We love how the binding adds a beautiful finishing touch. In some ways it makes construction easier, too.
The pillow top is made from 3″ fabric squares. You may already have a nice selection of scraps and such in your stash to choose from.
Once completed it fits a 12″ pillow form.
The tutorial, from Corey at Coriander Quilts, walks you through all the steps.

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
