Sew It - Wonky Patchwork Pillow


After a short break, Sew It started again as the Wonky Patchwork Pillow tutorial won the poll.



So I finished mine this morning, pheww! So glad I did as Sew It is a weekly sewalong, being a slow sewist, it's a real challenge for me :D

I gathered scraps in dusky pink and brown tones with some odd colours here and there. I did not pay any attention to the patcwork print positions at all, after all this is a wonky pathwork pillow lol. But I still think the dark brown polkadots overpowered the others on this one.


Still, I love it. My pillow is a 20" square, so had a 21" square patch.


The back. I love this pink Sis Boom fabric. The little miss just woke up and beaming. Glad to know at least one little girl loves the new pillow! :)

Come join us before Mayya feature this week's Sew It on Wednesday! It really is an easy project, great to use up those mounting scraps! :)

    You finished it in time congrats!

    Love the colours you used but i agree that the brown kind of over powers the pink however still looks good, love the wonkiness ;)

    Thanks for taking part in Sew It :)
