I have never seen a pine burr quilt before. I love your quilt and cushion. Thank you so much for explaining how you did it and then including instructions you found. I think I will try it as a pillow and see where I go from there.

I trimmed each pine burr to approx 18 inch square, then add sashings to it. I tacked it down to a backing. No batting is used behind the pine burr as they are already very heavy. But I did put batting under the sashings to add more body.

I found something online. You can check it out.
