Mini Christmas Scattered Pillows
This post may contain affiliate links which won’t change your price but will share a commission.Are you ready for the holidays……is your house all decorated? I made a couple of new Mini Christmas Scattered pillows with my Mini Scattered quilt pattern in Christmas fabrics to add to my Christmas decorations.
One charm pack will make two pillows
I used a Christmas charm pack that I may have bought last year….or the year before. One charm pack will make two pillows.
You can find the Mini Scattered pattern here.
Updated with Rusty
Update 2023 -Rusty did pretty good posing with the pillows. I have figured out that if I put something on his favorite couch, he will jump right up and pose. It is hard to believe that a year ago the day after Thanksgiving, we adopted him. We are so blessed to have him.
Here is a photo of the pillows when they were first made. If you look at the photo above you will notice that those pillows have been washed and have that crinkly look.
I didn’t use all of the Christmas fabrics in the charm pack so I added a few pieces to the back of my pillow as I wanted to use them up.
Save this for later!
I'll email you this post so you can come back to it later.
Don't worry, I promise not to spam you.
I made a couple of pillow forms and….overstuffed them just a little bit. The pillows look great from the front but pull a little bit on the back.
For the quilting, I just did straight line stitching.
It is always better if I can take photos outside on the deck.
You really have no idea how big these are. These almost look like pin cushions!
More quilt projects made with the Mini Scattered pattern
You can always find tutorials by going to my Tutorial page. There is a section on pillow tutorials and also a Christmas category.
If you have my Scattered pattern this is a miniature version.

Hi, I’m Connie Kresin Campbell, the quilter, writer, and photographer behind Freemotion By the River. I enjoy inspiring others with my quilt tutorials and patterns. You’ll also see my sweet adopted dogs from time to time.

Connie, I love the idea of using this for a pillow. I might even manage to get one or two made before Christmas. I think a Christmas pillow is a lot more practical for me than a quilt as I just don’t have room for many quilts either to store or display. I also have quite a bit of Christmas fabric looking to be used. Rusty looks really cute with the pillows, too.
Can’t believe it’s been a year. Rusty looks so good and very content. So happy you found each other. What a huge blessing!!
Rusty is such a cutie and it’s been so fun to watch him progress to a confident “model”. We got about 1/4 inch of snow, Indie is not as crazy about snow at 12 years old as she was at 2! But we’ll go for a walk after lunch. It’s not even sticking to the sidewalk. Thanks for the pillow pattern!
Rusty does a great job of posing with the pillows! You have trained him well. I love the pillows.
I have yet to master free motion quilting, so these scattered pillows suit my ability to quilt straight lines.
The scattered design has so many options and looks amazing.
Reading the comments adds to the inspiration I gain from being a happy subscriber.
Thanks, Connie, for providing tutorials and designs for such interesting and colourful projects.
Free Motion by the River is a happy place to be. Best wishes to all.
This is such a versatile pattern – looks good in so many ways! I do machine quilting but meandering. I really need to try straight stitch with your tutorial. Thanks! I have one more quilt to make for Christmas – clock’s ticking!
25th and Pine is one of my favorite fabric collections. I really love how your mini Scattered pillows show it off Connie!
Love those pillows Connie. I think Scattered is possibly my most favorite of all your patterns and lucky me, I just ordered that one late November along with a few others. YAY. I’ll look forward to how you made this smaller version at some point when you find the time.
Good Morning Connie! I have been following your blog for quite some time now and for some reason have not been commenting much. Very bad on my part because you always have wonderful projects and well written tutorials! A few days ago, I discovered your Spin The Wheel tutorial and pattern and instantly printed it out to make a couple of table toppers or pillows with for gifts. It is just lovely and I really love these envelope pillows that you made today! Thank you so much for sharing everything that you do! I know that I truly do appreciate the time and effort that you put into your blog and your pattern writing and tutorials! Have a fantastic creative day!
What a fun way to mix it up with the charm pack fabrics. Your pillows are beautful and they would make wonderful pin cushions in smaller versions…or get BIGGER pins. Merry Christmas Bliss Dear…
these are pretty and fun.
Beautiful pillowa! Will you adopt me? My daughter also snags goodies here.
Those are gorgeous, Connie. Your daughter would be smart to grab them. lol
The pillows look great and I think I have mentioned how MANY mini packets I have. Will be waiting for the tutorial. I can also see it as a small wall hanging or a doll quilt.
Those are SEW cute!! A wonderful addition to your holiday decor.
