Pillows, Pillows and more Pillows

At my quilt group, Janet showed us how to make beautiful pillows.  First tip was to use a round object to cut the corners of your pillow into a curve. This keeps you from having flat dogear corners.
Another tip was to use extra stuffing in the corners of the pillow, even though you are using a pillowform.  The form does not get into the corners completely.  Use extra stuffing to shape your pillow in the corners and also anywhere else it might need some extra loft.



I added beaded fringe to this pillow in a V shape.  No extra seams needed

My couch full of bright and colorful pillows brightens up the whole room.
Now to put something on the empty wall.
