There are fifteen groupings of pillows shown, but you can mix and match any of the blocks using your own fabrics and trims. The possibilities are endless. You can even use the blocks to make a matching quilt for your bedroom, a lap quilt for your den or a wall hanging for the living room.

There are complete instructions for each pillow as shown, but you can add fringe where we have added a ruffle, or beading where we have cording. You can make your pillows to your own specifications using the pillow Instructions on pages 12 to 15 as a guide.

You will find that you can't stop at just one. You will end up making pillows for everyone on your gift list or for every room in your home!
