Those pillows are beautiful & your story is even more so. I know he will love those & always think back on the times he had with you while his mother was healing. You are such a special grandmother!

You did such a lovely job on these pillows. I am sure he will be very happy with them.
I hope you heal quickly from your surgery. I think the sewing was a great therapy for a quilter.

Beautiful pillows, your grandson will really love them, I use to sing that song to my grandkids as well, My 11yr. old grandson was very colicky and I would sit and snuggle with him and sing this song, I would like to think it help him some, but I don't think anything help him, he cried allllll the time.

I like the black and white fabrics you have chosen.

Happy Graduation to your grandson and the proud Grandmother!

Thank you for your interest in the pillows. As I stated, I had no pattern. I just used what would fit. As for as the embroidery designs they are designs I put together. The sunflower is actually a one color white free design from Janome. It was used on a placemat project and may still be up for free. The font is called Pumpkin Spice I put the letters together for sayings.

I glanced through 25 pages of projects at Janome but didn’t see this sunflower design, sorry. I hope the link above works for the font.
