Playful Pillow

An Island Batik Adventure

Such a fun adventure – “Playful Pillow.” It wasn’t much of a decision for me as I knew I wanted another pillow for my sofa to go with the one I made last year with our curves adventure. I got the idea from potholders made by Patchwork Pottery.

The pillow top was easy and it was the first project I attacked at my Spring retreat. As soon as I got home I embroidered the face, backed the pillow front and quilted it. I kept it simple because I wanted the kitty’s face to be the focus of the pillow.

It finishes at a generous 20 inches and I love the way it looks side by side with my other Island Batik pillow.

The fabrics were provided by Island Batik and the threads by Aurofil.

Awwww… this is just too cute. It doesn’t get much more playful than a peek-a-boo kitten! 🙂
