Home Done Pillows





These are the pillows that I picked up at the yardsale for next to nothin awhile back. Well actually the one with yellow flower, the horseshoe and the strawberry plant ones are the ones from the sale. The black one I made. I found the pattern/directions in Mary Jane's Stitching Room book. I didn't do the yo-yo's as directed. Mine are bigger than they're supposed to be. But it was fun to make. I just wish I had the patience to make the smaller yo-yo's. It would have had a more dramatic effect on the pillow.

Your pillows are so sweet. I admired the yoyo pillow in MaryJane's book and started making tiny yoyos and quit.I like yours very much...
Tied quilts are great. I've made lots of them, my kids always enjoyed the fattest tied ones, it is cold here in the winter...
It is fun to see all the things we farmgirls make, carry on!
