Quillows..........

A quillow is a pillow and a quilt. When it's all folded up it looks like a pillow like this: (as always click on the photos for more detail)



When you unfold it, it is a quilt, with a pocket where you can put your feet into, like this:



I first mentioned back in June of this year on this post
that I was going to be making quillows for my two nieces and nephew for Christmas. It had taken me this long to finally get them made. I must say by the time I had made the third one, I had got it down to a fine art. I used this pattern to make them. Here's hoping that they will like them?

The following photos, sort of show you how to fold it back into a pillow. I made all three of mine out of flannel, but regular cotton material would be fine as well.







I still haven't finished the child's quilt I spoke about last week, will post photos of that when I get it finished, hopefully some time this week.

 Can you see it? There it is peeking in between the leaves....... We go walking past this tree quite often and never noticed it until a coup...
