Quilt Tutorial: Lovebirds Pillow 1 of 4

This is 1 of 4 pillows Debbie of Wow I Like That made from a single fat quarter and thrift store sheet. She machine appliqued and embroidered a sweet bird scene in the center square, oh la la. The border, in blue, is straight line quilted. Turn it over and you’ll see a pieced back, which is a great use of the smaller cuts of the sheet. I do love a thrifty sewer, and a generous one. She takes you step-by-step how she did it, including where she got the Lovebird pattern.
