LOL - So I looked at this site. You are right it is a great tute!! I did not see this when I was searching.

Thanks gaigai

I seemed to have folded mine differently :wink: (could it be wrong??. . . never!!) When I did the second fold I flipped them over before I folded it. :oops: So now my loose fold is on top rather than inside (as shown on this tute) I will play around with it - Amma suggested turning a triangle and adding that at the edge - I think I will try that.

Maybe it will be my "practice" pillow. You know - Practice make perfect! Thanks all for the help

Well, I thought the tute I sent you was excellent, and then I found THIS one. I'll probably never make the first ones again. I'm currently making some from this video and they are so easy!

Love this! I really want to try these, I'm just 'buffering' the tute now! I'm sorry I have no suggestions for the edges but I do think it looks fine how you've got it just folded under. It's beautiful BTW Betty - can I be your friend too?! LOL

your youtube one - Hans said if I play then pause til it's done then I can watch it without it keep stopping - apparently that's called 'buffering' don't be fooled into thinking I'm AT ALL technical - I just follow instructions!

Well I'm all buffered up BUT I can't get my lap top to 'un mute' so I can't hear the commentary - have to wait for DH - told you I wasn't technical! LOL

Yeah, where was Hans when I was figuring that out the hard way! LOL.

I had decided to do the B&W swap, with this pattern, but there's no way I'm going to get them done in time, so I'll just use them myself. What do you think?

Awww cute! I love it! And good excuse to keep it yourself LOL! This is a great way to use fussy cut motifs - maybe a possibility to show case some of my Flirt FQs - mmmmmm thinkin'!!!! LOL

I had seen that one and the quilting guild that I belong to did a short demo on that - I had already done half of the pillow the other way :( .

It is pretty slick though.
