TGIFF - High Constrast Hand Quilted PIllow

I finished one of the projects I started at QuiltCon Austin.  Last night I needed some quiet, slow creativity, so I pulled out the pillow I started in the High Contrast Hand Quilting workshop.  It was a great workshop by Riane Menardi Morrison (Riane Elise), and I can't wait to make another project.


The straight lines were stitched in a cream Sashiko thread, and I did the Xs in a light grey.


This pillow is a bit full as I had to use a 16-inch pillow form  -- my LQS has been sold out of 14-inch ones for months.

    It looks great, Anja; I really like the added touch of the gray x's! It was a special treat for me to walk into that workshop and see everyone working on the pillows.

    Sometimes the simplest things are the best! The colours and crosses work really well together Anja.
