I found an orphan block in my stash leftover from the Halloween quilt I made for/with Dave. So I made a quilted pillow cover to match!
He loved it so much, he hugged and squeezed it!
The beauty of making these pillow covers is that you can take the pillow form out and use it for a different cover when that season is behind you. Easy enough to whip up in a day!
Happy Halloween everyone!
So fun!! And I love that your husband is so appreciate of your beautiful work! That’s awesome! My boyfriend is the same way with the books I make. He loves when I make him little notebooks, sketchbooks, or journals. 🙂
I miss making pillow covers. I used to love playing with the types of closures for them… buttons, or ties, or plain envelope-style, or zips. It’s been soooo long since I’ve sewn anything!
awesome pillow~i’ve made many in the past. love the green on yours~
It’s always so wonderful when our work is loved and appreciated1 I really need to make more pillow covers. Such a great way to change up a room or help at a little holiday charm.
How cute! I love quilted pillow covers. All mine are store bought though…I guess I never thought to make my own.
Happy Halloween 🙂
Hello Terri! How nice you found that block – it became a wonderful pillow! I love patchwork pillows and cushions!
I’m sure your husband hugged you too because his quilt with the pillow is fantastic!

What a wonderful pillow!
Love the pillow!!! I love to make seasonal pillows and change them out too!
Awwww Terri – it’s great and I love that Dave loved it – must have made you so happy. Happy Halloween :0)
Hey Terri!
I love how the quilting frames the design, so to speak! I’m working on a couple of giant pillows for my already pillow-covered bed and I’m definitely going to copy,copy, copy you!!
OOPS! I mean: THANKS FOR THE INSPIRATION!!
Another wonderful piece sewn by you. I love to make pillow covers for just that reason (easy to change out)
Love it. Wow, you whipped the pillow cover up fast. I think you have a #1 fan. It’s nice Dave supports your passion. 🙂 Have a Happy Halloween!
That pillow is so cute! I’m sure there were lots of hugs going on! Happy Halloween.
Fun!
How sweet! I have to tell you though, I’m happy Halloween is finally finished and I’m looking forward to some THANKSGIVING 🙂
Great idea, and wonderful way to use up the orphaned block!

i love pillow covers for the exact same reasons! it also uses up some extra scraps!
isn’t it so nice when the recipient enjoys your creation as much as you do? that is the BEST! nice work on the pillow cover. the green spider fabric makes a fun back.
What a great way to use your orphan block!
