Spring Stars Quilt Pillow
I had one left over orphan block that got used to make this 18 inch Spring Stars pillow. It is a little loose which is fine because it will shrink a little when I wash it and then fit perfectly.
When I made my Spring Stars quilt for the Fat Quarter Stars QAL I made one block twice and decided to use it for a pillow to match my quilt.
Just for fun I added a little flower to the center of it.
We had another beautiful day here so I weeded my flower beds, took a walk and then hauled my quilt and pillow down beside the river.
You can check out this post Spring Stars quilt to find out more about this beautiful quilt and the link to all of these blocks.
The stitching really doesn’t show too much around the flower but it is there.
Looks perfect for a picnic doesn’t it!
I took a few pictures of the Mississippi River so I can get ready to make my new header for May. You can see Illinois across the river.
The theme used in pillows are too good "star" and the manufacture this pillows on that design theme, but i want to give advised you that color can used more better then it.
Amazing,Pillow covers are look so beautiful,Stars,flowers designs are so fabulous.Different colors and designs are look really extra ordinary art and crafting.I really inspire from this article.

I love your pillow and your quilt – such fabulous colour.

The quilt and pillow do look perfect for a picnic!
Do make a new header every month? Is there a special program or site you go to and make it?

Fabulous quilt, neat pillow. What a pair. And yes it does look like a picnic setting. Love the fabrics you used for the quilt and pillow – bright but not shout out at you bright. So cheerful and soothing.
Thanks for sharing, Connie.
beautiful quilt & pillow – I love the bright colors! great way to use an extra block 🙂
Yep it does look like it's waiting a picnic basket, and then maybe a good book outside. What a great pillow to go with that beautiful quilt.
I love the flower in the middle of the star. It really turns it up a notch.
WOWZER! What a gorgeous pillow. I am in awe of your color sense. Terrific!
The river looks so inviting… are you ever tempted to plunge in for a quick dip?!
Wonderful quilt and pillow!
Is this the Moose on the Porch QAL. I haven't even looked at mine since I made the blocks.
I love your cushion – and what a beautiful place to go and sit with it 🙂
Just beautiful! Looks like a wonderful picnic. The pillow just makes the whole look. I just love your view. I live near a lake in CA. We have a house in back of us so it is not the beautiful view you have.
Beautiful coordinates, and I love the photographic setting!
Those colors are so pretty! I can't help but smile when I see them.
