Quilt Guild Paint Chip Summer Challenge - Complete

This is my completed Quilt Guild Paint Chip Summer Challenge. I made my project into a pillow. I actually finished this on Saturday but I didn't want to post a picture until I had the pillow form and I could say it was totally complete. I was off work today and so I stopped by the fabric store and picked up the pillow form today. I had pillow forms at home--16", 20", and 22". This pillow is 18" square--the only size I didn't have on hand at home!

I started a new project on Sunday--a double four patch from 3" squares that I had already cut. I am off work tomorrow so I hope to finish the blocks then. I just couldn't bring myself to work on another UFO last weekend. There must be a quilting rule somewhere about completing only one UFO per weekend!

  1. Norma - your pillow looks wonderful - typical about not having the right size for inside it, isn't it always the way?

  5. If there isn't a "rule", then there should be!

    I am guessing that no matter how badly we want things to be done the creative part of our brain wants to be rewarded by the excitement of the new challenge rather than the one that we know and left partly done.

    The pillow looks very good sitting in the chair!
