First off, thanks for all the kind comments on our move and our new house! It's exciting and nervewracking all at once.
An aside....I think the brick patio is going to make a regular appearance in the background of my photos. I LOVE it!
For the envelope back, I used scraps that Anna so generously shared with me. Thanks Anna! Yes, those were some pretty large scraps! I took a fair amount of time fiddling with the back pieces so they would look harmonious next to each other. They don't line up EXACTLY, but at least they don't jar the eye. That's all I can really ask for! I love that chevron print...so excited that I have still have more scraps to play with.

Very cute pillow, hope it cheers your friend up!
So pretty with those pastel solids. This should definitely accomplish MUCH cheering up!
Glad that you are all moved in to your new home. The pillow looks great love the solid colors and stitching.
looks great!
That beauty should cheer someone up. Love the quilting.
The pillow cover looks lovely and I know you will be so happy in your new home. I am sure you will fill it up with quilts.
Beautiful
Love the grey background. It is definate a cheery pillow! Love the quilting.
That's definitely cheery! I love how the quilting in the center comes together like a labyrinth. It makes me want to trace my finger along the seam line. You are patient with skinny quilt lines.
Beautiful! Love the bricks too!
It's gorgeous! I used a bot of the same chevron yellow in a baby quilt, and the recipient wants matching accessories in it! Easy to sew with a yummy fabric!
I realize you may not what to say what town you are living in now, but could you indicate if you will be doing classes or anything in the Duluth area???? Love the pillow too.
Looking good. I got a little pack of these same Kona 2.5" squares on a shop hop hmmmm this pillow could be in my future. I really love the straight line quilting textures.
Very pretty! I love the yellow chevs and the gray with the straight line quilting. I'm starting to really love the small projects like pillows.
Congrats on the new place!
Gorgeous Amanda Jean! How have you managed to created such a beautiful thing when you are still settling in to a new house? I recently made a cushion cover that makes me beam every time I see it. A cushion like yours next to it would look super cute! Admittedly I'm not feeling very excited about cutting out 2.5" squares at the very moment (though I'd do it as an alternative to vacuuming!), but I do have some Cuzco and Central Park candy I could use...
This pillow looks so nice with the straight line quilting!

Thanks for the reminder. I've wanted the pattern to make covers for our throw pillows on the couch. I could use a change. I do love the mega-pillows you made for your kids. Would you ever consider writing up a quick pattern for that one? I know my daughter would love one. Looks easy enough but I need written instructions on the zipper. :)
Love your pillow. Looks like you are settling in nicely.
Awesome!
