    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.
