Recycling a Tattered Quilt - part 2

In June, I showed you what I did with a beautiful yet tattered quilt...

The plan was that these pillows were going to be put outside...but I decided I wanted them on our bed...

and besides that, I wanted to see them everyday..

we don't spend much time outside this time of year..

it's either humid or the bugs are so bad..

After making these two pillows there was quite a bit of quilt left over so I made another pillow for our living room.. our living room is slowly being redone..

The dark oak furniture and trim will be going cottage style..

hopefully in the next month or so we'll begin tackling this project..

But for now, let me show you my latest pillow...

This project was virtually free...

I used muslin that I had on hand that I actually bought months ago for a project that I never did..

The stuffing came from an pillow that was outside last year that got faded from being in the sun..

and my tattered quilt..

And my final project...does this say cottage or what?

This turned out to be such a easy project..

I have a couple other ideas on how to use more of this quilt,

but if you know of something a

"wanna be sewer"

can do, please let me know..
