    That quilt reminded me of my chocolate lab girlie, also named Hershey. She was a wonderful dog! I'm sorry for your grandchildren's loss of their Hershey :cry:

    Ohhhh, you can see how much they totally love them!! Wonderful job on them!! :)
    I think they're called 'quillows' because they're a quilt and pillow in one. The quilt folds up, and fits into a envelope, making it like a pillow. ~ I just seen one once, never made one -yet. :)

    I'm confused. So is there a quilt inside the pillow and then when you use the quilt you are left without the pillow?

    It is a pillow pocket sewn on to a quilt , on top center. then you fold the blanket part up and tuck it in to the pillow pocket. So , yes, if you unfold it you have a quilt with a pouch to put your feet into.
