This quilted toss pillow showcases bowtie patchwork. The colorful dark toned fabrics on the bowties are set off on a scrappy beige background. Lovely cotton prints offer country charm in this 16 inch square rustic cushion. A scrappy look is created by the random placement of color and fabrics for a truly one-of-a-kind decor piece.

Quilted pillows are unique in that the stitching on the front gives a plush textured look. The backs are a simple overlapping design for easy care when slipping off and on over the pillow form.

You choose to purchase the pillow cover only or include a pillow form. The forms come in a compressed bag (less bulk in shipping) and will instantly inflate when you open the bag.

Pillows are a beautiful addition to any decor! Whether you love them on your bed or displayed on the living room couch, these pillows are made to enjoy. They also make lovely handmade gifts for the home!

Features

I always use quality fabrics and thread. In addition, I am conscientious about making sure I use a full seam allowance. I never leave fabrics holding together by a few threads. This ensures a quality, handmade item, that will withstand normal care and use for many years.

The inner batting layer is usually Pellon or Hobbs 80/20. Occasionally I use a bamboo batting.

Binding is always double thickness and attached by machine for added durability, with neat mitered corners.

The nice thing about quilts is that the more you use them the softer and more snuggly they become. Don’t be afraid to use them wherever you want to be. After all, we wear cotton fabrics everyday in our clothes… your quilt won’t fall apart before it gets well loved!

Care

I have often washed my own quilts in with a regular wash load, with no regrets. However, it is still recommended to use a gentle cycle, mild soap and tumble drying on low heat. (** Note: I rarely prewash my fabrics. Expect a small amount of shrinkage on the first laundering.) It is the tumble drying that achieves the soft crinkly look that we associate with handmade quilts. If you prefer a flatter look, lay flat to air dry… do not dry in the dryer. 

Remember that sunlight will fade any fabric, and your quilt is no exception.  So; have a care when you leave it outside frequently or in a sunny window.

Packaging & Shipping

I package all my items responsibly, first with a care for your purchase and then with a desire to reuse and recycle any shipping material I have around.
