Make a Lovely Throw Pillow from a Classic Block

It Has Been Modernized for Easy Construction!
Feature a beautiful combination of prints in this charming throw pillow. Traditional Cathedral Windows blocks have been modernized to create the beautiful design.
Typically, solid fabric is folded over the prints, creating curved edges. In this case, the blocks are created entirely by machine.
Once you learn the technique, you can easily create more blocks for larger pieces to use in small quilts and other projects. It will also be fun to play with fabric choices. We love the scrappy look of the pillow. However, a more controlled color theme will be just as charming.
The completed pillow, designed by Lindsay Conner, is 15″ x 15″.
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!
