Pot holders YD (youngest daughter) had me make 2 more was only going to make the two lighter ones but she told me I should do the other 2 too so yeh she was right.

i like the look of the stitches in the center of the blocks on the pillow. are they strictly decorative or are they functional?

Ok I promised to post a pic of the quilt that the pillow goes with. here ya go :)

I hand dyed the fabrics for this and spent almost a week deciding on how to put the blocks together and finally settled on this layout. She loves the quilt has in on her bed. She'll be 4 come June 3.
